The Magnificat (Canticle of Mary)
(St. Luke 1:46-55)
My soul magnifies the Lord, my spirit
rejoices in God my Saviour; for He has looked with favour on His lowly
servant From this day all generations shall call me blessed. The Almighty
has done great things for me, and holy is His Name. He has mercy on those
who fear Him in every generation. He has shown the strength of His arm, He
has scattered the proud in their conceit. He has cast down the mighty from
their thrones, and has lifted up the lowly. He has filled the hungry with
good things, and the rich He has sent away empty. He has come to the help
of His servant Israel for He has remembered His promise of mercy, the
promise He made to our fathers, to Abraham and his children forever. Amen.
