That my soul may sing praise to You and not be silent.David had been mourning, and God had given him some sort of relief. From what's said earlier in the chapter, I think maybe it was that David had been stubborn and not obeying God's directions. God therefore withdrew from him and David felt the absence and despaired.
O LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
He cried to God, and He revealed Himself again. Therefore, David is praising God. He is thankful that he was not destroyed when God was not supporting him. He now is so grateful, he wants to praise Him for the rest of his life, and afterwards. He does not want to be silent anymore.
