This paper explores church music by examining its theological, historical, and liturgical significance for congregational participation and faith formation. Beginning with a theological reflection on sound, the study argues that church music is not merely an aesthetic or emotional expression but a divine gift through which the congregation is drawn into the mystery of Christ. The paper then surveys the changing role of the congregation in church music from the early church to the Middle Ages, with attention to ministerial chant, congregational acclamation, psalmody, the rise of clerical scholas, the silencing of the laity, and the distinctive contribution of women's choirs in Syriac Christianity. It also considers the Reformers' differing approaches to music, especially Luther's recovery of congregational singing as an expression of the royal priesthood and Zwingli's emphasis on the Word apart from musical practice. Finally, the paper argues that church music forms liturgical faith both consciously and unconsciously by shaping the identity of the congregation as the Body of Christ. In the context of cultural diversity and liturgical inculturation, church music becomes Sonus Dei when the whole congregation participates fully, actively, and consciously in praise, prayer, and the proclamation of the mystery of Christ.
