Sometimes it sends. forth lamentation; sometimes _it some- times it sadly. sings the .dirg_e of disappointed hope; sometimes it is a patriotic ballad, or a coronation ` ode, or a sweet strain of piety and trust. Sometimes it is `a erce shout of victory over a fallen foe,-V and - sometimes it is as-`lyric of such ten- derness that. it melts every gener- ation to tears. But the most domi- nant note in this book, E that of gratitude to God. Many of the H psalms are mere hymns, very common one in their thanksgiving ` and the word thanks is a .
