Its root in the classical dictionaries

الحمد لله تعالى: الثناء عليه بالفضيلة، وهو أخص من المدح وأعم من الشكر، فإن المدح يقال فيما يكون من الإنسان باختياره، ومما يقال منه وفيه بالتسخير، فقد يمدح الإنسان بطول قامته وصباحة وجهه، كما يمدح ببذل ماله وسخائه وعلمه، والحمد يكون في الثاني دون الأول، والشكر لا يقال إلا في مقابلة نعمة، فكل شكر حمد، وليس كل حمد شكرا،…

المفردات في غريب القرآن — الراغب الأصفهاني

الحمد: الثناء بجميل الأوصاف، ولا يكون إلا باللسان، سواء علي نعمة مسداة، أم علي صفة في المحمود قاصرة عليه بخلاف الشكر، فإنه لا يكون إلا علي نعمة مسداة، ويكون باللسان والجوارح والجنان، وأنشدوا: [من الطويل]
