PSALM 127 —————— THEME: The vanity of building without God This is another great pilgrim psalm. It has been called “The Cotter’s Saturday Night Song,” which is probably as good as any name. It is a mighty crescendo. Here you come to the crest of the psalms. We are at the highest elevation when we reach the temple area and Mount Zion in Jerusalem, but this psalm carries us right into the heavenlies. This is a psalm that is applicable to us in our day, and it reveals an utter dependence upon God.
