4. My soul proclaims the
greatness of the Lord,
My Spirit rejoices in God
my Saviour
For He has looked with
favour on His lowly servant.
From this day all
generations will call me
blessed:
The Almighty has done great
things for me,
And holy is His Name.

5. 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.

6. 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 for ever.

and to the Son,

As it was in the

forever.
Amen.
