The elements of music that are used to re-inforce the meaning of the words are pitch, rhythm and dynamics.
Music has been an integral part of communities and history since as far back as the Stone Age. They "bored finger holes into animal bones to make whistles and flutes" (Norton Anthology of Western Music). Here's a picture: http://homepage.eircom.net/~bronzeagehorns/images/midsize/swanbone_flutes.jpg Music evolved through the time periods and was still an active part of society. In the Renaissance composers like Thomas Morely and William Byrd composed court songs as entertainment for royalty. This tradition of being comissioned to compose for royalty continued through the Baroque with composers like Bach and Handel. Then in the Classical era with Mozart and Beethoven and so on. In addition the music being composed often reflected the conditions of the time period as well as its place of origin. Music is the universal language that allows us to learn from past civilizations as well as about other cultures. Music was also an important form of worship in various religions from Roman Catholics to Muslims to Buddhists.

No - they sing the words of the Latin Mass - effectively all settings of the Mass by Renaissance composers set the same words.
You did not give us the words, but here's a suggestion. The Romantic period was the era of such great classical composers as Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Schumann, Schubert, and Chopin. Some words to describe the music of this period would be innovative, creative, and emotional.
Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina is often credited for this achievement, due to his careful setting of words -which made them easier to understand and follow. Thanks to this, it's popularly admitted that the Catholic Church authorities regained respect for an art they thought in decadence and not apt for the services.
Xzhova, a God from the Muslim renaissance.
