The Magnificat: Mary’s Song of Praise

 ⁴⁶ Mary responded,

   “Oh, how my soul praises the Lord.

    ⁴⁷ How my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!

 ⁴⁸ For he took notice of his lowly servant girl,

      and from now on all generations will call me blessed.

 ⁴⁹ For the Mighty One is holy,

      and he has done great things for me.

 ⁵⁰ He shows mercy from generation to generation

      to all who fear him.

 ⁵¹ His mighty arm has done tremendous things!

      He has scattered the proud and haughty ones.

 ⁵² He has brought down princes from their thrones

      and exalted the humble.

 ⁵³ He has filled the hungry with good things

      and sent the rich away with empty hands.

 ⁵⁴ He has helped his servant Israel

      and remembered to be merciful.

 ⁵⁵ For he made this promise to our ancestors,

      to Abraham and his children forever.”  Luke 1:46-55
