Canticle: Magnificat (Morar)

 

 

I acclaim the greatness of the Lord.
I delight in God, my saviour, who regarded my humble state.
Truly from this day all ages will call me blest.

For God, wonderful in power, has used that strength for me.
Holy the name of the Lord!  Whose mercy embraces the faithful
one generation to the next. I acclaim ….

The mighty arm of God scatters the proud in their conceit,
pulls tyrants from their thrones, and raises up the humble.
The Lord fills the starving and lets the rich go hungry. I acclaim ….

God rescues lowly Israel, recalling the promise of mercy,
the promise made to our ancestors to Abraham’s heirs for ever and ever.  I acclaim ….

(Glory to the Father . . .
