Conclusion 

Psalm 118 reveals that He (Jesus the Christ) is the Cornerstone that would be rejected, but would become the firm and eternal foundation upon which our salvation is built. 

It is remarkable that Jesus and his disciples were singing (see, e.g., Mark 14:26) in the last hours before the crucifixion and resurrection. 

Oh, how extravagant, amazing, unfathomable, unstoppable, unconditional is God’s love for humanity.
