30. I will praise the name of God with a song. He who sang after the Passover sings yet more joyously after the
resurrection and ascension. He leads the eternal melodies, and all his saints
join in the chorus. And will magnify him with thanksgiving. How sure was
our Redeemer of ultimate victory, since he vows a song even while yet in the
furnace. In us, also, faith foresees the happy issue of all affliction, and
makes us even now begin the music of gratitude which will go on forever increasing
in volume, world without end. What clear shining after the rain we have in this
and succeeding verses. The darkness is past, and the glory shines forth as the
sun. All the honor is rendered unto him to whom all the prayer was presented;
he alone could deliver and did deliver, and, therefore, to him only be the
praise.
