Psalms 36:9 Context
7How excellent is thy louing kindnesse, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust vnder the shadowe of thy wings. 8They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatnesse of thy house: and thou shalt make them drinke of the riuer of thy pleasures. 9For with thee is the fountaine of life: in thy light shall we see light. 10O continue thy louing kindnesse vnto them that know thee; and thy righteousnesse to the vpright in heart. 11Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remoue me.

Wesley's Notes for Psalms 36:9
36:9 Life - It is in God as in a fountain, and from him is derived to us. But - Of that glorious and blessed, and endless life, which alone is worthy of the name. Light - In the light of thy glorious presence, which shall be fully manifested, when we see thee face to face. Light - Joy and comfort, and happiness: the word light is elegantly repeated in another signification; in the former clause it is light discovering, in this light, discovered or enjoyed.
