Psalms 146:2

“While I live will I praise the Lord, etc.] As he had good reason to do, since he had his life from him, and was upheld in it by him; who also favoured him with the mercies and comforts of life; and that every day, being renewed to him every morning, and continued all the days of his life; which determined him throughout the whole of it to praise the Lord: nay, he had his spiritual life from him, with all the blessings of it; which are lasting, everlasting ones, and had hope of eternal life with him; I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being; or “while I am”f1950; not only in this world, but in the world to come; for men have a being or existence after death, and the saints have…”

“While I live will I praise the Lord ... - See the notes at Psalms 104:33, where the same language occurs substantially as in this verse: “I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.” The idea is, not merely that he would praise him during this life - short and fleeting as it is - but that as long as he had an existence - in the future world - forever he would praise him. Through every period of my life Thy goodness I’ll pursue; And after death, in distant worlds, The glorious theme renew. Through all eternity to Thee A joyful song I’ll raise; But, oh! eternity’s too short To utter all thy praise.” - Addison return to 'Top of Page'”
