All who claim the faith of Jesus
Sing the wonders that were done,
When the love of God the Father
O’er our sin the victory won,
When he made the Virgin Mary
Mother of his only Son.
Blessed were the chosen people
Out of whom the Lord did come,
Blessed was the land of promise
Fashioned for his earthly home;
But more blessed far the mother
She who bore him in her womb.
Therefore let all faithful people
Sing the honour of her name,
Let the Church in her foreshadowed
Part in her thanksgiving claim;
What Christ’s mother sang in gladness
Let Christ’s people sing and sang:
How my soul proclaims God’s greatness!
God, for me, great things has done:
Scattering the proud and haughty,
Lifting those who are cast down,
merciful throughout the ages
God protects us as his own.
