Musar zu Tehillim 134:1
שִׁ֗יר הַֽמַּ֫עֲל֥וֹת הִנֵּ֤ה ׀ בָּרֲכ֣וּ אֶת־יְ֭הוָה כָּל־עַבְדֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה הָעֹמְדִ֥ים בְּבֵית־יְ֝הוָ֗ה בַּלֵּילֽוֹת׃
Stufenlied. Auf, preiset den Herrn, all ihr Knechte des Herrn, die im Hause des Herrn in den Nächten wach bleiben!
Kav HaYashar
It is implied in the Zohar (Parashas Va’eschanan 260a) that the hosts of Heaven look forward to the moment that a Jew will rise from his bed to engage in study and prayer. The proof to this is that when he does so a proclamation goes forth saying, “Behold, bless Hashem all servants of Hashem who stand in the House of Hashem at night” (Tehillim 134:1). Then, when he has risen and gone to the synagogue to beseech his Master they proclaim, “And I will grant you movement among these standing ones” (Zecharyah 3:7). All this is true, however, only if he prays with devotion, pouring out his supplications like a beggar, just as our teacher Moshe did when he said, “And I pleaded with Hashem, etc.” (Devarim 3:23).
