Jeff Ward: Ave Verum Corpus

The first composition I'm prepared to share in public. Ian's been berating me for ages to share some of the stuff I've been doing, so 1000 thanks for all of your support and advice Ian... I'm finally relenting, so here's my Ave.
Ave, ave verum corpus
Natum de maria virgine
Vere passum immolatum
In cruce pro homine
Cujus latus perforatum unda fluxit sanguine
Esto nobis praegustatum in mortis examine
Ave, ave verum corpus
Natum de maria virgine
Ave, Ave
Amen
Written using Musescore 4.0, rendered in Logic Pro using the EastWest Hollywood Choirs sample library and Wordbuilder for the choir. Hard work doing it phonetically but if you close your eyes it's almost right. Well, sort of.
This is the one time I'm thankful for TH-cam's copyright checker...no matches found. Phew!
