      I was lucky and privileged to do the top treble part twice around Easter, probably in 72 and 73, when I was a chorister at Peterborough Cathedral. I have to listen to only one or two bars from any part of it to be returned to my boyhood and the exhilaration of wondering whether each high note would come out cleanly. The organist, with true pragmatism, had two of us sing this highly technical part so that if one voice faltered the other would still be heard.

      The fact is if you go to a traditional catholic mass it will most likely resemble this, but it shouldn't matter all that much. Yes, beautiful music and a grand cathedral helps. But the real beauty comes from receiving the blessed sacrament, repenting and having the opportunity to know you are closer to God.

    LYRICS:
    Miserere mei, Deus: secundum magnam misericordiam tuam.
    Et secundum multitudinem miserationum tuarum, dele iniquitatem meam.
    Amplius lava me ab iniquitate mea: et a peccato meo munda me.
    Quoniam iniquitatem meam ego cognosco: et peccatum meum contra me est semper.
    Tibi soli peccavi, et malum coram te feci: ut justificeris in sermonibus tuis, et vincas cum judicaris.
    Ecce enim in iniquitatibus conceptus sum: et in peccatis concepit me mater mea.
    Ecce enim veritatem dilexisti: incerta et occulta sapientiae tuae manifestasti mihi.
    Asperges me hysopo, et mundabor: lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor.
    Auditui meo dabis gaudium et laetitiam: et exsultabunt ossa humiliata.
    Averte faciem tuam a peccatis meis: et omnes iniquitates meas dele.
    Cor mundum crea in me, Deus: et spiritum rectum innova in visceribus meis.
    Ne proiicias me a facie tua: et spiritum sanctum tuum ne auferas a me.
    Redde mihi laetitiam salutaris tui: et spiritu principali confirma me.
    Docebo iniquos vias tuas: et impii ad te convertentur.
    Libera me de sanguinibus, Deus, Deus salutis meae: et exsultabit lingua mea justitiam tuam.
    Domine, labia mea aperies: et os meum annuntiabit laudem tuam.
    Quoniam si voluisses sacrificium, dedissem utique: holocaustis non delectaberis.
    Sacrificium Deo spiritus contribulatus: cor contritum, et humiliatum, Deus, non despicies.
    Benigne fac, Domine, in bona voluntate tua Sion: ut aedificentur muri Ierusalem.
    Tunc acceptabis sacrificium justitiae, oblationes, et holocausta: tunc imponent super altare tuum vitulos.

    English translation
    This translation is from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer and is used in Ivor Atkins' English edition of the Miserere (published by Novello):
    Have mercy upon me, O God: after Thy great goodness.
    According to the multitude of Thy mercies, do away mine offences.
    Wash me thoroughly from my wickedness: and cleanse me from my sin.
    For I acknowledge my faults: and my sin is ever before me.
    Against Thee only have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that Thou mightest be justified in Thy saying, and clear when Thou art judged.
    Behold, I was shapen in wickedness: and in sin hath my mother conceived me.
    But lo, Thou requirest truth in the inward parts: and shalt make me to understand wisdom secretly.
    Thou shalt purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
    Thou shalt make me hear of joy and gladness: that the bones which Thou hast broken may rejoice.
    Turn Thy face from my sins: and put out all my misdeeds.
    Make me a clean heart, O God: and renew a right spirit within me.
    Cast me not away from Thy presence: and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.
    O give me the comfort of Thy help again: and stablish me with Thy free Spirit.
    Then shall I teach Thy ways unto the wicked: and sinners shall be converted unto Thee.
    Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, Thou that art the God of my health: and my tongue shall sing of Thy righteousness.
    Thou shalt open my lips, O Lord: and my mouth shall shew [show] Thy praise.
    For Thou desirest no sacrifice, else would I give it Thee: but Thou delightest not in burnt-offerings.
    The sacrifice of God is a troubled spirit: a broken and contrite heart, O God, shalt Thou not despise.
    O be favourable and gracious unto Sion: build Thou the walls of Jerusalem.
    Then shalt Thou be pleased with the sacrifice of righteousness, with the burnt-offerings and oblations: then shall they offer young bullocks upon Thine altar.

    There's a little bit of history to this piece that still boggles my mind to this day.
    This piece was only ever performed in the Sistine Chapel during Holy Week and the sheet music was unavailable outside of the chapel, essentially a highly restricted piece of music. There was a 14-year old boy who was visiting Rome, and he heard this piece in the Chapel. Later that day he proceeded to TRANSCRIBE the entire song from memory, only returning to the chapel to make minor corrections to his transcription. The boy's name was Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. He gained fame after that, being summoned by the Pope himself who proceeded to praise him for his musical genius!

      The traditional Latin mass is like this and very beautiful. If you have one in your area you should go to a Rorate mass, it will blow your mind. It starts before the sun comes up in an all candle lit church and just as the priest is saying consecration prayers the sun shines through the stain glass. It’s to represent that Jesus is the light and it’s so beautiful and done in the month of December.

      Rahul, it's in fact an alternation between chant and polyphony. And it's this alternation between the unison of the chant and the harmony of the polyphony which accentuates that harmony.
      Below is another professional video of a polyphonic masterpiece, Sicut Cervus, composed in 1587 by Palestrina and performed by the Sistine Chapel Choir:
      Sicut cervus desiderat As the deer longs
      Ad fontes aquarum For running streams
      Ita desiderat anima mea So longs my soul
      Ad te Deus For thee God

      You're both already Christian by default (and
      more so than many who claim to be Christian)
      At that time the disciples came to Jesus, asking
      "Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven?”
      So Jesus called a child to come & stand in front
      of them and said "I assure you that unless you
      change and become like children you will never
      enter the Kingdom of heaven. The greatest in
      the Kingdom of heaven is the one who humbles
      himself and becomes like this child. And whoever
      welcomes in my name one such child as this,
      welcomes me." (Matt. 18 1-5 GNT)
      "I may be able to speak the language of men
      and of angels but if I have no love, my speech
      is no more than a noisy gong or a clanging bell.
      I may have the gift of inspired preaching,
      I may have all knowledge & understand all mysteries,
      I may have all the faith needed to move mountains,
      but if I have no love, I am nothing." (1 Cor. 13 1-2 GNT)

Hearing this for the first time, and the floodgates reopened like never before. I'm not religious at all, but this definitely hits home, and above all, gives me hope. Thanks for this gift.

The original 16th-century version by Allegri does not have this high C and is not written in C-minor but in a way lower key.
