It’s never too often to listen
to a musical rendition of the Magnificat.*
Mary, we follow your example
in praising God exuberantly.
Mary, we experience you identifying with
the lowly, the simple, the humble.
Mary, we hope to imitate your sure conviction
that God is on the side of the poor and oppressed
by opening our hearts accordingly.
Amen.
*Consider John Rutter’s jubilant Magnificat,
which he said was inspired by outdoor
Central and South American festivals of Mary.
