Be exalted above the heavens, O God;This exact phrase is repeated in the Psalm. That gives it significance. Obviously, what was said here is important to David. He uses it as a chorus, in a sense, for the song.
Let Your glory be above all the earth.
So, why do we need to proclaim that God be exalted? I think it's because we need to put things in proper perspective. Many, even today, think the cosmos are the most amazing thing, and can explain everything if we study them enough. However, they can't explain God. He created the heavens and the earth, and therefore is automatically superior to them. Therefore, His glory is also superior to creation, since without Him there would be no creation. This is something that we need to keep in mind, to have a small inkling of what is truly important.
