I will reflect on all You have done and ponder Your mighty deeds.
The Holy Spirit dictated this psalm as a common prayer for the Church in her afflictions, not the private sorrow of one man, but the lamentations of God's chosen people. When we cry to Him, He hears; this is not mere complaint but the sure testimony of His readiness to answer those who call upon Him.

Commenting on Psalm 77:1-20
I will meditate also of all thy work. Sweet work to enter into Jehovah's work of grace, and there to lie down and ruminate, every thought being absorbed in the one precious subject. And talk of thy doings. It is well that the overflow of the mouth should indicate the good matter which fills the heart.
When I remember what God has wrought for His people of old, my faith revives. He is holy in all His works and changes not; if He begins a work, He will finish it. The remembrance of His wonders is a powerful antidote against distrust of His promise and goodness.
