Lenten Reflection - Ave Verum Corpus

[Sirach2]

Our choir sang this hymn during communion Sunday, and I was so moved by it that I searched for it on youtube. This is one of the better presentations. Pray, reflect, and enjoy!

BarbW,

Thanks for posting the english translation for us. I did wonder what beauty was hidden in the latin words, since the music was so lovely.

This is probably my favourite song ever written by Mozart - maybe even my favourite piece by him in general. Makes me wonder why we even need new hymnals when we have beauties like this already written for us
