Ecce Sacerdos magnus by Johann Baptist Singenberger — 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
Johann Baptist Singenberger composed this sacred responsory for SATB choir. Sung in Latin, the text begins by describing a great high priest, chosen by God and blessed with divine favour. The music sets this text, moving through verses celebrating his virtues and God's covenant with him, before concluding with the doxology. Singenberger's setting of Ecce Sacerdos magnus provides a rich and devotional experience, suitable for liturgical occasions or as a standalone choral work.
