From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Praise ye the Lord -Margin, “Hallelujah.” SeePsalms 106:1. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart -With undivided affections; holding back nothing. I will allow nothing to be in my heart that would interfere with the fullness of praise; no coldness or dividedness of affection; no love for other things that would deaden my love for God; no suspicion respecting him that would chill my ardor; no unbelief that would drag me down to earth, while the language of my lips ascended to God. See the notes atPsalms 86:12. In the assembly of the upright -With the righteous when they are gathered together for public worship.
