8. My soul followeth hard after thee, or is
glued to thee. If we cannot walk with him with equal footsteps, we will at
least follow after with all the strength he lends us, earnestly panting to
reach him and abide in his fellowship. Thy right hand upholdeth me. Else
he would not have followed the Lord with constancy, or even have longed after
him. The divine power, which has so often been dwelt upon in this and the
preceding psalms, as here mentioned as the source of man’s attachment to God.
How strong are we when the Lord works in us by his own right hand, and how
utterly helpless if he withhold his aid!
