God, I am ready, heart and soul, to sing songs of praise. Wake up, my soul!Awake, psaltery and harp; I will awake the dawn. I will give thanks unto Thee, O LORD, among the peoples; and I will sing praises unto Thee among the nations. For Thy mercy is great above the heavens, and Thy truth reacheth unto the skies. Be Thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; and Thy glory be above all the earth. That Thy beloved may be delivered, save with Thy right hand, and answer me. God spoke in His holiness, that I would exult; that I would divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth. Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of my head; Judah is my sceptre. Moab is my washpot; upon Edom do I cast my shoe; over Philistia do I cry aloud. Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me unto Edom? Hast not Thou cast us off, O God? and Thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts? Give us help against the adversary; for vain is the help of man. Through God we shall do valiantly; for He it is that will tread down our adversaries.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise,.... From hence to Psalms 108:6 the words are taken out of Psalms 57:7, which see.
Even with my glory; my tongue; in Psalms 57:8, it is read, "awake up my glory". Psalms 57:8- :,
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
O God, my heart is fixed - Prepared, suited, ready. See the notes at Psalms 57:7. In Psalms 57:7, this is repeated: “My heart is fixed; O God, my heart is fixed:” indicating that there “might” have been some doubt or vacillation caused by the circumstances then existing, and the repetition would have respect to that, as if the psalmist had been unsettled and wavering for a time, but was at last firm. In such circumstances it would not be unnatural to “repeat” the assertion, as if there were no longer any doubt. In the beginning of a psalm, however, where there had been no previous expression or feeling of doubt so far as appears, there would be no propriety in repeating the assertion.
I will sing and give praise - See the notes at Psalms 57:7.
Even with my glory - This is not in Psalms 57:1-11. It is literally here, “truly my glory.” In Psalms 57:8, however, the expression, “Awake up, my glory,” occurs, and this seems to correspond with that language. It means here that it was his glory - his honor - thus to be employed in giving praise to God. It was worthy of all that there was elevated in his nature; of all that constituted his glory; of his highest powers. At no time is man employed in a more noble and lofty work than praise.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
PSALM CVIII
The psalmist encourages himself to praise the Lord for mercies
he had received, 1-5.
He prays for the Divine succour, 6;
and encourages the people to expect their restoration, and the
enjoyment of all their former privileges and possessions, 7-13.
NOTES ON PSALM CVIII
This Psalm is compounded of two Psalms which we have had already under review. The Psalms 108:1-5, are the same with the Psalms 57:7-11 of Psalms 57:0: And the Psalms 108:6-13, are the same with the Psalms 60:5-12 of Psalms 60:0: The variations are few, and of little moment, and the explanation may be seen in the notes on the preceding Psalms, which need not be repeated here. That the Psalms referred to were made by David, and were applicable to the then state of his affairs, has been the opinion of many; and it is probable that the captives in Babylon composed this out of two above, and applied it to the state of their affairs. Their captivity being now ended, or nearly at an end they look and pray for their restoration to their own land, as amply as it was possessed in the most prosperous days of David. The Syriac considers it as a prophecy of the vocation of the Gentiles. The Hebrew and all the Versions attribute it to David.
Verse Psalms 108:1. Even with my glory. — My greatest glory shall be in publishing thy praise. Some make the glory here to mean the LORD himself; some, the ARK of the covenant; some, the SOUL of the psalmist; others, his TONGUE; some, the GIFT OF PROPHECY; and some, the psalmist's SPIRIT or VEIN of poetry. Psalms 57:8.
