In the liturgy, to sing and play music means to pray, attuning our hearts to God and to our brothers and sisters. \u201cSinging belongs to those who love,\u201d said St. Augustine. It opens our hearts to grace and allows us to be fashioned by it.<\/p>\n<p>Singing also fosters communion, bringing everyone together in praise of God.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason, sacred music should be dignified and noble, inspired by Sacred Scripture, and reflective of local cultures while preserving the musical heritage of the Church.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMay we join together in love, and\u2014in the words of St. Ignatius of Antioch\u2014\u2018with one voice sing to the Father through Jesus Christ.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"i_jYa VP_4j\">\n<div
