Praise as a Grateful Response
Commentators agree that the psalmist's commitment to 'sing praise' is a direct response to God's gracious actions. This praise isn't just a duty but a constant, lifelong reaction to God hearing prayers, providing a spiritual heritage, and showing mercy. Our worship, therefore, should flow from a grateful heart that recognizes God's specific work in our lives.
