Singing the Song of Mary – v3

We sing, joining her
Mary, the mother of our brother,
our Savior, the Christ;
Singing the song of Mary,
the Magnificat, its melody alive
shining in that night

The darkness illumined
by His bright birth star;
Claiming our faith like Mary,
a servant of God, willing,
walking humbly with our Father,
welcoming our King.

First Sunday of Advent
part of a series of sermons,
using the Advent Conspiracy
& poem from last year:
------------
Magnificat

Joining Mary, her song
sung to God, for all generations -
blessings we share, each of us
with her, all creation, blessed by the creator
humble servants are we, walking with our brother
sharing this wondrous message, with her, the angels,
those who have gone before us

A choir, singing her song, our song
of praise, of grace, of God’s great works
rejoicing with our mother, our sister
at all the almighty has done for us,
for the people, the descendants of Abraham
by faith, by his love, all of us saved
Share the good news
