God is present whenever people sing his praises.

Singing together in our parish community helps our faith to grow when it is well expressed in song. It is not only about vocal ability but the desire to sing for our love of God. -U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, 2007

Music in our Parish Liturgy
A cry from deep within our being, music is a way for God to lead us to the realm of higher things. As St. Augustine says, “Singing is for the one who loves.” Music is therefore a sign of God’s love for us and of our love for him. In this sense, it is very personal. But unless music sounds, it is not music, and whenever it sounds, it is accessible to others. By its very nature song has both an individual and a communal dimension. Thus, it is no wonder that singing together in church expresses so well the sacramental presence of God to his people.
