Free Song: "My Soul Will Magnify the Lord"

In his gospel, Luke records Mary's response to the angel's announcement to her that she would be the mother of the Messiah. Many have written musical arrangements of this text, and one of the latest is Stuart Townend and Keith & Kristyn Getty. Here is the way they put this passage into verse, and you can download a free recording of their version here (look for the link under the video).

"My Soul Will Magnify the Lord (Magnificat)"

My soul will magnify the Lord;
I rejoice in God my Savior,
In the wonder of His favor.
For He has done great things for me;
He 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.

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.

From Luke 1:46-55
