24. My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long. My theme will be thy way of justifying sinners, the glorious display of thy righteousness and grace in thy dear Son. Others talk of their beloveds, and they will be made to hear of mine. For they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt. As in many other psalms, the concluding stanzas speak of that as an accomplished fact which was only requested in former verses. Faith believes that she has her request, and she has it. She is the substance of things hoped for—a substance so real and tangible that it sets the glad soul singing. Already sin, Satan, and the world are vanquished, and the victory is ours.
