In response to her cousin
to Elizabeth’s heart-felt
blessing
Mary was filled with the
Spirit, with joy,
Mary sang the Magnificat
she had become God’s
servant
God’s handmaiden,
God’s willing vessel.
Mary sang for joy
at God’s great blessing,
from the depth of her
being,
accepting God’s blessing
her purpose, her calling,
carrying the baby
our Lord, Jesus Christ.
