Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations, The LORD reigneth.Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that is therein.
1 Chronicles 16:31-32

David’s psalm of praise.

Let God be glorified in our praises. Let others be edified and taught, that strangers to him may be led to adore him. Let us ourselves triumph and trust in God. Those that give glory to God’s name are allowed to glory in it. Let the everlasting covenant be the great matter of our joy his people of old, be remembered by us with thankfulness to him. Show forth from day to day his salvation, his promised salvation by Christ. We have reason to celebrate that from day to day; for we daily

receive the benefit, and it is a subject that can never be exhausted. In the midst of praises, we must not forget to pray for the servants of God in distress. (Matthew Henry’s Concise Commentary on the Bible)

The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.

But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
1 Peter 1:15-16 (KJV)

God is both holy and pure. It is God’s desire for us to be holy and pure also. However we cannot become this way by ourselves. We need help. That help comes from the Holy Spirit. To be holy is to be separated for a special purpose. As a believer in Christ we are set apart from the world spiritually.

We actually belong to God. We should no longer do what the world instructs us to do. With the power of God in our lives we can now be directed by the Holy Spirit to do God’s will in our life. When we are obedient to God’s will He is exalted. The thing that is important to note is that holiness comes only from God. He is the very essence holiness. This song is for the believer to be reminded of the fact that God is holy and pure therefore we need to be holy and pure also.
