C.H. Spurgeon Reformed Baptist

Those who reverence God's name and law have their desires fulfilled because a holy heart desires only what a holy God gives. He does not hand them to angels or saints but saves them Himself, listening to their cry with divine nearness and working their deliverance.

Matthew Henry Presbyterian

All God's works praise Him, but His saints actively bless Him as children call their parents blessed. They collect the tribute of praise from inferior creatures and pay it to heaven. His saints, the workmanship of His grace, have the most reason to celebrate His kingdom and the control He holds over all earthly powers.
