We should not be relativists or subjectivists about artistic truth any more than we are about the objective reality of human nature and the natural law. Anyone who is consistent will see that the beautiful, like its companions, the good and the true, is not reducible to subjective whim but is based on objective criteria that already point towards the divine.

For all these reasons, we could justifiably add to the venerable theological axiom lex orandi, lex credendi a new one: lex cantandi, lex credendi. Or, more idiomatically, “We begin to believe, the way that we sing.”
