John Calvin Reformed @genevareformer

The Psalmist calls on all God's servants, whether those who stand in the temple itself or in its courts, to praise His name, not as a vague sentiment, but as praise of God in His actual infinite essence: His being, holiness, goodness, and truth. We praise what He truly is.

C.H. Spurgeon Reformed Baptist @princeofpreachers

Praise the Lord. Do it again; continue to do it; do it better and more heartily; do it in growing numbers; do it at once. There are good reasons for praising the Lord, and among the first is this— for the Lord is good. He is so good that there is none good in the same sense or degree.

Matthew Henry Presbyterian @wholebiblehenry

Praise Him for what He is in Himself, not only for what He has done for you; those admitted to His house have most reason to praise, for there they behold His beauty and taste His bounty. The work itself is its own reward: praising God is a heaven upon earth, and will quite put your mouth out of taste for the pleasures of sin.
