Song Meaning of “Ave Verum Corpus” by Jon Sarta
The Latin phrase “Ave Verum Corpus” which translates to “Hail Holy Body” is a hymn of devotion, praying for faith and joy on the path towards salvation. Sarta’s piece captures this sentiment, evoking feelings of reverence and adoration for the divine. In the chorus, the singing voices swell as they express a longing for spiritual presence as the haunting strings and low bells invoke a sense of reverence.
The song is a simple yet powerful plea, and is a reminder that each of us is deserving of peace and grace. It asks us to look within, to find the necessary love and acceptance to guide us through life’s struggles and to find the strength to continue our journey towards redemption.
