What is the meaning of "b'Tzidkasecha Chayeni"?

1.

Radak: Extend my life, so I can fulfill the Mitzvos.

2.

Malbim: Mishpat is according to people's merits; Tzedakah is based on Elokus, without looking at people's deeds. They are above natural conduct. Because I desire Your Pekudim, even though they are not based on Mishpat, I ask that You sustain me amidst Tzedakah, even though I am not worthy based on Mishpat, due to my sins.
