You're missing the whole issue. It isn't really about language. There was a whole culture and environment that the Latin Mass nurtured, one of holiness (set-apart-ness) and reverence which has mostly been lost since its (partial) suppression.

Just compare Gregorian chant with any of the "worship music" produced by Oregon Catholic Press and your ears will show you the difference.

I can appreciate the loss of reverence in services today.

I don’t like the so called “praise music”. It’s very shallow from a theological perspective. It tends to border on a “me” performance.
