I’ve learned a touch of Latin. Here in the LCMS we still use Latin in parts of our liturgy. Not exactly chanted, but you can see the influence of ancient worship and the respect we pay to it.

Good on those who teach the kids and newbies what it means too! It makes me crazy when clergy and parents expect the other to do the teaching when in fact it needs to be both.

And as an afterthought, Mozart’s The Deum is one of my favorite compositions ever.

Nice. I've always wondered....is there any German?
