Wesley's Notes for Psalms 74:1

74:2 Thy congregation - Thy people. Thine inheritance - The tribe of Judah, which thou hast in a special manner chosen for thine inheritance, and for the birth of the Messiah. Nor is it strange that he mentions this tribe particularly, because the calamity here remembered, did principally befal this tribe, and Benjamin, which was united with it.

74:3 Lift up - Come speedily to our rescue. Because - Because otherwise our destruction is irrecoverable.
