The Sanctus is a prayer, and often a hymn, said or sung as part of the Mass in Christian churches, especially Catholic, , and some Lutheran services. It begins with the Latin word sanctus, which means 'holy,' said three times: Holy, holy, holy. The first part comes from the prophet Isaiah; another part takes words from the crowd in Matthew who blessed Jesus as he rode into Jerusalem. Choirs love it, and some musical settings are very famous. Write it with a capital S when you mean this piece of the service. Though actually, people who do not go to church may never use the word; they might just say 'the holy, holy, holy part.' It is a church name for this prayer, not a general English word for 'holy.' The everyday English cousin of the same Latin word is saint.
聖哉經(彌撒中「聖哉、聖哉、聖哉」那段)
組成Borrowed from Latin sānctus ('holy'), the opening word of the prayer. The prayer takes words from Isaiah 6:3 and Matthew 21:9. Doublet of saint.
