Psalms 63:4 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Thus will I bless thee That is, so as I have done, and have now said. As I have begun, I will go on: the present devout affections shall not pass away like the morning cloud, but shine more and more like the morning sun. Or, for this reason, being so sensible of the sweetness of thy favour; or, certainly, as the particle כן, cheen, is sometimes used. While I live I will persevere in this work of blessing and praising thee: it shall be an important part of the business of my whole life. Through thy grace I will retain a sense of thy former favours, and repeat my thanksgivings for them; and every day give thanks for the benefits with which I am daily loaded. I will lift up my hands Toward thee, in heaven, in prayers and praises, to my duty, and against my enemies; in thy name According to thy command, with confidence in thy name, or thy nature and attributes, and in the strength of thy Spirit and grace.

Psalms 63:4

4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
