Our participation in the Mass is chiefly in our hearts, but must touch all our senses, so that we are allowed to pray with our voices, to respond aloud to the priest's «The Lord be with you», to
join in when invited to pray «the prayer our Saviour gave us», to sing, to be able to see and hear, to be aware of the scent of the incense and the flickering of the candles and the gleam of the
chalice.
