“We Have Reason to Praise Him Forever”

D. Kelly Ogden, Andrew C. Skinner

It is interesting that both Alma (Alma 5:26) and Ammon spoke of singing redeeming love. There is something heavenly and harmonious about divine love that redeems. It is worth praising, and that praise often comes out in song.

So Ammon asked, apparently with considerable emotion: “Who can glory too much in the Lord? Yea, who can say too much of his great power, and of his mercy, and of his long-suffering towards the children of men?” (compare the exclamations of joy and adoration from Jacob in 2 Nephi 9). Ammon continued expressing his deep feelings of exultation, his fulness of joy and rejoicing.
