The lyrics of Juliano Ravanello's song Sanctus are rooted in the Christian liturgy and are typically used during the celebration of the Eucharist or Holy Communion. The word "sanctus" in Latin translates to "holy," and the repetition of the word throughout the song emphasizes the sanctity and divine nature of God. The phrase "Dominus Deus Sabaoth" adds another layer of reverence, as it translates to "Lord God of Hosts," indicating that God is the ruler of all.
The second half of the song declares the glory of God and the worship that is due to Him. "Pleni sunt caeli et terra" means that heaven and earth are full of God's glory, and this is something that should be acknowledged and celebrated. The phrase "Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini" is a reference to Jesus Christ, who came in the name of the Lord, and is deserving of praise.
Overall, the song Sanctus is an expression of reverence and worship towards God, emphasizing His holiness and transcendence, and acknowledging the glory that is due to Him.
