Psalms 138:5

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 138:5. Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the Lord: for great is the glory of the Lord.

Think of that,- kings singing in the ways of the Lord, crowned princes becoming choristers in God’s service. Someone has said that there are few in heaven who wore crowns on earth; and I am afraid it is true that, of all who are crowned on earth, few ever get to that land where all are kings and priests unto God. To have a crown on earth, and a crown above, is a rare thing; but David says that these kings "shall sing in the ways of Jehovah: for great is the glory of Jehovah;" and they shall be overpowered by that glory,- melted, subdued, wooed, won, converted by its power.
