David had confidence in the covenant

II. But secondly: David had confidence in the covenant. Oh! How sweet it is to look from the dullness of earth to the brilliancy of heaven! How glorious it is to leap from the ever tempest-tossed bark of this world, and stand upon the terra firma of the covenant! So did David. Having done with his “Although,” he then puts in a blessed “yet.” Oh! It is a “yet,” with jewels set: “He hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure.”
