While all religions feature music in worship, it is one of the things Christianity does best, in my subjective opinion. Everyone I know loves to sing in church - good singers and joyful noisemakers alike. This they share with St. Augustine, who wrote:
How I wept, deeply moved by your hymns, songs, and the voices that echoed through your Church! What emotions I experienced in them! Those sounds flowed into my ears, distilling the truth in my heart. A feeling of devotion surged within me, and tears streamed down my face - tears that did me good.
