The English word mercenary can be both an adjective (describing a person's character) and a noun (a type of soldier for hire). In Latin the adjective is mercenarius and the noun is miles conductus.
One example of non-liturgical Latin poems set to simple melodies are the "Carmina Burana" composed by Carl Orff in the 20th century. These poems were taken from a collection of medieval texts and set to music in a more contemporary style. They are often performed with a focus on rhythmic intensity and dramatic delivery.

Sacred is referring more to the church. In music history, it deals with the period of time after Gregorian chant when music was written for the church services in the Proper and the Ordinary including parts such as: Kyrie, Conductus, Antiphon...etc. Stylistically, it is more plain and goes more with the syllables of the text in the chant. There is often a lot of short phrase in repeated metrical patterns. Secular music is the more mainstream "non-church" music. Stylistically, it includes longer drawn out phrases. It uses a lot of expression to provide a mood with the music.
