Psalms 145:2 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Every day will I bless thee ... - Compare Psalms 92:2; Psalms 55:17. As we receive blessings from God every day (compare Lamentations 3:23), it is proper that we should render to him daily thanks; as God is the same always - “yesterday, today, and forever” - it is proper that he should receive from day to day the tribute of praise; as we are daily dependent on him - one day as much as another - our recognition of that dependence should be daily; and as he will always be unchangeably the same, it will be proper that he should be praised forever and ever. Two things are apparent from this verse:

(1) that a truly religious man “will” worship God every day;

(2) that it is the fixed purpose of a truly religious man to continue this forever.

Psalms 145:2

2 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
