I believe the answer is:

lords prayer

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'words in church?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'peer at one spitting' is the wordplay.
'peer' becomes 'lord' (I've seen this in another clue).
'at' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'one spitting' becomes 'sprayer' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'lord'+'sprayer'='LORDS PRAYER'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lords prayer that I've seen before include "Motor dating from nineteen twenty five to nineteen forty two" , "Our Father......" , "part of the service" .)
