Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake.

Psalms 115 Study & Commentary
Psalm 115 contrasts the living God with dead idols. It calls Israel to trust in the Lord and declares that "not unto us, O Lord, but unto thy name give glory."
CONTEMPORARY APPLICATIONS
1. Soli Deo Gloria: "Not unto us... but unto thy name give glory" (v. 1). All success and praise belong to God alone.2. The Helplessness of Idols: Idols have mouths but speak not. Those who make them become like them—spiritually deaf and blind (v. 4-8).
