We enjoyed the choice of this hymn for day 251 of the Beseeching prayer: Prayer for the saints to realize the importance of praising and to practice praising the Lord every day. David in Psalm 55:17 said he prayed to God three times a day. Yet in another psalm, he said that he praised God seven times a day. (119:164). We should praise God at least seven times a day. Do not let David beat us in his praise!
In the New Jerusalem, prayer will be over. Only praise will remain for eternity. This hymn declares this fact.
