Psalm 150

Psalm 150 with my notes in parentheses.

1 Praise the LORD!
Praise God in his sanctuary;
praise him in his mighty heavens!

(Praise Him - where. Everywhere. You can't get away from praising Him. I hope you don't want to get away from praising Him. That He is everywhere is a good thing, isn't it?)

2 Praise him for his mighty deeds;
praise him according to his excellent greatness!

(Praise Him - why. For what He does and for who He is. What He does is overwhelming and who He is is also overwhelming. That's a good thing, too, isn't it? )

3 Praise him with trumpet sound;
praise him with lute and harp!
4 Praise him with tambourine and dance;
praise him with strings and pipe!
5 Praise him with sounding cymbals;
praise him with loud clashing cymbals!

(Praise Him - how. I suppose you can praise Him quietly, too, but don't despise the noise of others.)

6 Let everything that has breath praise the LORD!

(Praise Him - who. Everything that has breath. Well, I have breath, so this includes me. Hallelujah!!)

Praise the LORD!

And when? Rejoice in the LORD always...
