Psalms 146:2

While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

146:2. While I live will I praise the LORD. I cannot tell how long or short my life may be; but every hour of it shall be given to the praises of my God. As our life is the gift of God’s mercy, it should be used for his glory.

I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. When I am no longer in being on earth, I hope to have a higher being in heaven, and there I will not only praise, but sing praises, for the glorious Jehovah is my God, my own God by covenant, and by blood relationship in Christ Jesus. I have no being apart from God; therefore I will not attempt to enjoy my being other than by singing to his honor.
