“Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good. His love endures forever. Give thanks to the God of heaven. His love endures forever."
Psalm 136:1,26
===
This Psalm seems to have been composed after exile. It is a song of praise to God. The beginning part thanks the God of Gods, which was a pre exile sentiment, during exile, the concept of other Gods was dropped. The Psalm lists formative landmarks when Jews held to God. It finishes with them holding to God.
