DB, the Bible is rife with emotional displays demonstrated by a pyscical response.
As for how we respond at home, many times I or my family will be singing, clapping our hands, weeping, & just generally worsipping God.
Do we have to show some restraint?
Yes, we live in a duplex with neighbours who moved in this past summer who are quiet as a Church mouse & have already indicated that our teanagers are a little on the noisey side, so yes, we need to be cognizance of that in are actions.
In regards to Church, the Bible declares to sing, clap, shout in our praise & worship--if that bothers you well....

Sing, clap, shout, great! But, that's not what the discussion is about.
