With very few exceptions during Holy Week, hymns at Mass have never been part of the Catholic tradition. Hymns are for the Liturgy of the Hours. Restoring the chants of the Propers is a step in the right direction for the Novus Ordo. But, if you truly want to follow Vatican II, they would, along with the Ordinary, be sung in Latin. 98% of the liturgical changes were contrary to what the Council called for. It’s time to acknowledge this and ditch the Protestant liturgy we now have.
