Your right hand saves me, O Lord.
LET US REJOICE AND BE GLAD AND GIVE GLORY TO GOD,

(Entrance Antiphon, Mass)
If Paul and Silas could pray and sing psalms to God after they had been stripped, beaten with rods, then thrown into an innermost cell of the jail with their feet secured to a stake (Acts 16:22-24), then it seems we could do our part, no matter the circumstances. Alleluia!
I will thanks to you O Lord, with all my heart,
for you have heard the words of my mouth;
in the presence of the angels I will sing your praise;
I will worship at your holy temple,
and give thanks to your name.
(Psalm 138)
