Thomas Aquinas, on Ps 19:9

Thomas Aquinas · 1225–1274
Ps 19:9 · Douay-Rheims
“They are bound, and have fallen; but we are risen, and are set upright. O Lord, save the king: and hear us in the day that we shall call upon thee.”
On this verse:
“"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."”
