God Saved the King

by Andrew Kerr

Final Psalter arrangement, when no son of David ruled, makes Psalm 118 a communal chant of messianic thanks.

The LORD's lasting loyal love is praised by God's whole awestruck church for Jehovah had saved the Jews' victorious, chastened, battle-scarred, King.

Having survived to rejoice in defeat of hate-filled foes, now in procession, justified & justifying Christ, enters Yahweh's House as Key Building Rock & Passover Sacrifice.

If we distrust man, & in God alone we trust, it is hardly a shock if redeemed saints rejoice in full salvation from sin, hell & death, fought-for & bought by Christ.
