Wexford Carol/Magnificat (Live)
[Spoken]
And in the sixth month of Elizabeth's pregnancy
God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee
To a virgin pledged to be married a man named Joseph, a descendant of David
The virgin's name was Mary
And the angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you
You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus
He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High"
[Verse 1]
My soul will magnify the Lord
I rejoice in God my Savior
In the wonder of His favor
For Hе has done great things for me
Hе was mindful of His servant
Every age shall call me blessed
The Hope of Abraham come
In the giving of a Son
For He who promised is mighty
In remembering His mercy
[Verse 2]
My soul will magnify the Lord
For His grace to those who fear Him
Through every generation
The proud He scatters to the wind
As the ruler’s strength is broken
And the rich are left with nothing
The humble lifted high
And the hungry satisfied
Our Portion and our Treasure
Our Hope and Help forever
[Outro]
My soul will magnify the Lord
I rejoice in God my Savior
In the wonder of His favor
