Choir Music For Jesus


(I sing in this one too.)

Like life which is full of emotion,
Like the sounds of the breeze with the ocean,
The choir sing songs
Of which she longs
About Whom t'ward which all owes devotion.


Ave verum corpus natum
de Maria Virgine:
vere passum, immolatum
in cruce pro homine:
cuius latus perforatum
unda fluxit et sanguine:
esto nobis praegustatum,
in mortis examine.

Hail the true body, born
of the Virgin Mary:
You who truly suffered and were sacrificed
on the cross for the sake of man.
From whose pierced flank
flowed water and blood:
Be a foretaste for us
in the trial of death.

Post a Comment

Your comment is welcome by me.
As long as a lim'rick it be.
By God if it's not,
It's going to rot
In some com. box down under the sea.

I've found that the sonnet of love
Speaks softer than wings of a dove.
If Shakespeare found time
To write ev'ry rhyme,
You can also write verse from above.

(i.e., all comments must be in limerick, English sonnet, or another poetic form (not free verse
per se).)
