Psalms 73:28 - Exposition

But it is good for me to draw near to God; or, "but as for me, nearness to God is my good" (Kay). Compare the well known hymn—

"Nearer, my God, to thee,

Nearer to thee;

Even though it be a cross

That raiseth me;

Still all my song shall be,

Nearer, my God, to thee,

Nearer to thee."

I have put my trust in the Lord God; literally, in the Lord Jehovah ( Adonai Jehovah )—an unusual combination. That I may declare all thy works. With the intention of ever hereafter declaring and magnifying all thy works.
