Luke 1:46-56 - Mary's Hymn Of Praise To God

46 And Mary said: "My soul exalts the Lord, 47 My spirit delights in God my Savior; 48 For he has remembered his servant in her lowliness; And from this hour all ages will count me happy! 49 Great things has the Almighty done for me; And holy is his name. 50 From age to age his mercy rests On those who reverence him. 51 Mighty are the deeds of his arm; He scatters the proud with their own devices, 52 He casts down princes from their thrones, and the lowly he uplifts, 53 The hungry he loads with gifts, and the rich he sends empty away. 54 He has stretched out his hand to his servant Israel, Ever mindful of his mercy 55 (As he promised to our forefathers) For Abraham and his race for ever."

56 Mary stayed with Elizabeth about three months, and then returned to her home.
