This, like the foregoing, is a true gospel Psalm. Jesus is adored for the victories of his redemption; and the Church, both Jew and Gentile, is called upon to sing aloud the triumphs of his grace.
A Psalm.
It may be truly said of our Jesus, that he alone hath gotten the victory, for of the people there was none with him; Isaiah 63:3. But what is this new song the church is called upon to sing? It can be none but that of redemption. For creation work had been long finished, and long and faithfully recorded: and ever is to be recorded as an ancient, lasting, eternal song. The morning stars then sang together, and the sons of God shouted for joy. Job 38:7. But when redemption work came forward, and was perfected, a new note, a new song, was added to the subject, of mercy, and the church is called upon, as being most highly interested, to sing it. The song, and all the subject of it, is Jesus.
