Luke 1: 46-56
The Magnificat: Mary’s Song of Praise
Mary responded,
“Oh,
how my soul praises the Lord.
How
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!
For
he took notice of his lowly servant girl,
and from now on all generations will call
me blessed. For
the Mighty One is holy,
and he has done great things for me.
He
shows mercy from generation to generation to all who fear him.
His
mighty arm has done tremendous things!
He has scattered
the proud and haughty ones.
He
has brought down princes from their thrones
and exalted the humble.
He
has filled the hungry with good things
and sent the rich away with empty hands.
He
has helped his servant Israel
and remembered to be merciful.
For
he made this promise to our ancestors, to Abraham and his children forever.”
Mary stayed with Elizabeth about three months and
then went back to her own home.
