John Trapp on Psalms 63:3

Verſ. 3. Becauſe thy loving kindneſſe is better than life] Mr. Bradford being threatned by Stephen Gardiner (then L. Chancellour) anſwered, I know to whom I have committed my life,Acts & Mon. fol. 1459. even into his hands which will keep it, ſo that no man may take it away before it be his pleaſure, Therefore his good will be done; life in his diſpleaſure is worſe than death, and death in his true favour is true life. This made him and the reſt of the holy Martyrs, that they loved not their lives unto the death, Rev. 12.11. The ſight of God, though but in that dark glaſſe of the ceremonies, would have been better to David than life with the appurtenances, thoſe [non-Latin text not transcribed], riches, honours. pleaſures, &c. See Pſal. 4.7, 8.

My lips ſhall praiſe thee] Gods love ſhed abroad in the heart can cauſe the lips of them that are a ſleep to ſpeak, Cant. 7.9.
