This is a beautiful breaking off in the hymn of praise, to put up an earnest prayer that the Psalmist may be made a rich partaker of the covenant-mercies he had been blessing God for; and that he might see for himself what the people of God enjoyed, and partake in that rich, covenant-love the Lord bestowed upon his chosen. Reader! in these great and distinguishing blessings, consists the happiness of the soul. To see Christ as he is in himself, is blessed: to see Christ as being interested in him, is yet more blessed: and to see Christ in the souls fellowship and communion with him, from one hour to another, is more blessed still. Lord, I would say, remember me with this favor, and heaven will have begun in my soul!
