Beth Nielsen Chapman "Ave Verum Corpus" |
AVE VERUM Corpus Natum de Maria Virgine, Vere passum, immolatum In cruce pro homine, Cuius latus perforatum Fluxit aqua et sanguine, Esto nobis praegustatum Mortis in examine. [Translation:] HAIL, true Body, truly born Of the Virgin Mary mild Truly offered, wracked and torn, On the Cross for all defiled, From Whose love-pierced, sacred side Flowed Thy true Blood's saving tide: Be a foretaste sweet to me In my death's great agony.
