There are many types of sacred choral works, and the some of the types also exist in secular versions. You also have to keep in mind that most composers do not have English as a first language, so the names of the works are often in other languages.

Here are some of the names, in English:

Mass, Cantata, Chorale, Oratorio, Anthem

If you are asking about Franz Joseph Haydn, his best known work is "The Messiah", which is an oratorio. It lasts over 3 hours, yet he composed it in less than a month.
