Ecce sacerdos magnus by Jorge Braun — Lyrics
Ecce sacerdos magnus, qui in diebus suis placuit Deo.
Ideo jurejurando fecit illum Dominus crescere in plebem suam.
Benedictionem omnium gentium dedit illi
et testamentum suum confirmavit super caput ejus.

About Ecce sacerdos magnus
The text of Ecce sacerdos magnus speaks of a great high priest, who pleased God in his days and was blessed by Him. The words go on to praise God in the traditional Gloria Patri. Jorge Braun has set this Latin text for SA choir, creating a sacred anthem. The music would be well-suited for services celebrating a priest or bishop, or indeed for any occasion where reverence for ordained ministry is appropriate.
