My soul glorifies the Lord, *
My spirit rejoices in God, my Saviour.
He looks on his servant in her lowliness; *
Henceforth all ages will call me blessed.
The Almighty works marvels for me. *
Holy his name !
His mercy is from age to age, *
On those who fear him.
He puts forth his arm in strength *
And scatters the proud-hearted.
He casts the mighty from their thrones *
And raises the lowly.
He fills the starving with good things, *
Sends the rich away empty.
He protects Israel, his servant, *
Remembering his mercy,
The mercy promised to our fathers, *
To Abraham and his sons for ever.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son *
And to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, *
World without end. Amen.
