"Thou art the glory of their strength, " that is, "thou art their strength, and it is their glory that thou art so, and what they glory in." Thanks be to God who always causes us to triumph. "In thy favour, which through Christ we hope for, our horn shall be exalted. " The horn denotes beauty, plenty, and power; these those have who are made accepted in the beloved.
