IMPORTANCE OF PARTICIPATION of the PEOPLE While the Schola and the choir are responsible for providing the sacred music for the liturgy this should not detract from the active participation of the people in singing those parts of the Mass which pertain to them. This is of great importance. In order that the faithful may more actively participate in divine worship, let them be made once more to sing the Gregorian Chant, so far as it belongs to them to take part in it. It is most important that when the faithful assist at the sacred ceremonies, ... they should be filled with a deep sense of the beauty of the liturgy, they should sing alternately with the clergy or the choir. [Pope Pius XIs Apostolic Constitution Divini Cultus of 20 December 1928.] At Lewisham all the laity are encouraged to sing and respond with the Schola in the various Gregorian modes in Latin at Sung and Solemn Masses. The laity are readily familiar with the Asperges Me, the Kyrie, the Gloria, the Creed, the Sanctus, the Agnus Dei, and the Deo Gratias.
