This is my favorite type of Psalm. King David is obviously fully in praise mode. It's all about praise. This is one time when David doesn't ask God for anything.
In verses 1-5, David sings of the mercies and blessings which he has personally received from God.
In verses 6-19, he magnifies the attributes of Jehovah as displayed in his dealings with God's people.
David closes this psalm by calling upon all of God's creation to adore him and for them to join with him in praising and blessing Jehovah.
Praise the Lord, you his angels,
you mighty ones who do his biding,
who obey his word.
Praise the Lord, all his heavenly hots,
you his servants who do his will.
Praise the Lord, all his works
everywhere in his dominion.
Praise the Lord, O my soul. - Psalm 103:20-22 (NIV)
