[Avodah] Standing for Vayivarech David

[Rich, Joel]

We've discussed this previously in regard to standing for the chatan
(here perhaps standing for the tzedaka collector). 
 
In the new R' YBS R"H machzor the following note appears:
 
"These verses are included because the earliest blessing, Blessed are
You Hashem the God Israel our Forefather is cited here.  The precedent
constitutes our own license to recite blessings.  Because blessings in
general are recited while standing, the congregation arises for the
recitation of these verses."
