It is somewhat debated on whether Psalm 139 is a praise or a lament psalm. It has elements of a praise song, but it also has a bit of imprecation, petition, and vocative thrown in. Traditionally, it is viewed as a praise song, but some people think it is a lament song. The positive things said about God can be viewed as not good for fallen mortals, and could be understood as an innocent man's case.
