What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Augustine of Hippo
"O Lord, save the King:" that He, who in His Passion hath shown us an example of conflict, should also offer up our sacrifices, the Priest raised from the dead, and established in heaven. "And hear us in the day when we shall call on Thee" (ver. 9). And as He now offereth for us, "hear us in the day when we shall call on Thee."
Thomas Aquinas
"O Lord." The conclusion of this entire Psalm is set forth: which indeed seems to tend to two things. For it petitions either for the true Christ or for Christ figuratively. As to the first he says, "O Lord, save the king," that is, Christ. Or for David. And so he prays for those who are praying. "Hear us on the day when we shall call upon you": Ps. 137: "On whatever day I shall call upon you, hear me."
