psalm of praise is the book of psalms written by david praising god for all his creation.
As songs of praise to God.
The word 'praise' is found in 130 verses in the book of Psalms in the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible. If you use word variations (e.g. praises, etc.) then the count will be more.

The Hebrew title of the Book of Psalms is Tehillim (תהילים). This word literally means "praises" but in Hebrew a "praise" is a synonym for a "religious song."Note that each individual psalm in Hebrew is called a shir (שיר) which means "song" or "poem".
The book of Psalms is divided into five sections that run parallel to the writings of Moses in the Pentateuch. These five books contain similar themes to the books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. However, these five portions of the Psalms don't have individual names; they're just numbered Book One to Book Five.
