A Magnificat

Luke 1.46-56 is commonly referred to as “The Magnificat”.  It’s where Mary (“the mother of my Lord” v43) seems to sing a Psalm.  “Magnificat” means magnify and it certainly does not magnify Mary, but God.  When our Church studied it on New Years day we noticed that the Psalm was full of scripture.  Mary, was full of scripture.  We have several young people in our Church who are full of the Word too and we are the better for it.  We hope God will gift those young people to write a song and put some of that scripture to new music.  Here is an example of it from Scott Cunningham’s daughters at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa.
