A Classic Call to Worship
Commentators point out that the phrase 'O give thanks unto the Lord' is a beautiful and significant liturgical formula. It appears as the opening for several later psalms, including Psalms 107, 118, and 136. This shows that this verse is not just a spontaneous cry but a foundational, time-honored call to worship in ancient Israel.
