- Call To Worship – OGRP 695 – Magnificat
- My soul does magnify the Lord. And my spirit rejoices in God, my Savior. For he has regarded the lowliness of his handmaiden. For behold, from now on all generations shall call me blessed. For he that is mighty has magnified me, and holy is his name. His mercy is on them that fear him throughout all generations. He has shown strength with his arm; He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts; He has put down the mighty from their seat and has exalted the humble and meek. He has filled the hungry with good things and the rich he has sent away empty. He, remembering his mercy, has taken hold of his servant Israel as he promised to our forefathers, Abraham, and his seed forever. 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.
