The Song of Mary

Verse 1

My soul doth magnify the Lord, and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

Verse 2

For He hath regarded: the lowliness of His hand-maiden.

Verse 3

For behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

Verse 4

For He that is mighty hath magnified me, And holy is His Name.

Verse 5

And His mercy is on them that fear Him throughout all generations.

Verse 6

He hath showed strength with His arm: He hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

Verse 7

He hath put down the mighty from their sea: and hath exalted the humble and meek.

Verse 8

He hath filled the hungry with good things, and the rich He hath sent empty away.

Verse 9

He, remembering His mercy hath holpen His servant Israel: as He promised to our forefathers, Abraham and his seed, for ever.

Chorus

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son: and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
