Those who know the name of the Lord trust and love Him; they declare/proclaim His name. -Ps 9:10,91:14

Declaring/knowing/’seeing’ His glory, mercy, grace, longsuffering {slow to anger}, goodness, truth, forgiveness, greatness, justice and righteousness are part of declaring/knowing/’seeing’ His name. -Exo 33:18-19,34:5-7 ;Deut 32:3;Jere 9:23-24

Those who declare/know His name make their boast in the Lord {understand His character}, praise His greatness{ascribe greatness} and have high praise {a new song} continually in their mouth! -Jere 9:23-24;Deut 32:3;Ps34:1-3

High praise is associated with the song of Moses and the Song of the Lamb; singing a new song.
From Harps of God:
The harp goes with the singing of the song of Moses and the song of the Lamb; it is associated with singing a new song. The new song in (Rev 15:2-4) seems to spring forth as a celebration of victory, a celebration of deliverance by the Lord’s mighty hand. It is also a celebration of the confession of truth, of the goodness and greatness of the Lord. A similar thing is seen in Psalms 33:1-5, 43:3-5, 71:22-24.
