1. My soul gives glory to my God
Who reaches down with loving grace
To lift me from my low estate
And set me in the highest place.
Magnificat, magnificat!
With all my heart, I answer Yes
When God announces wonderous news.
And ev'ry age shall call me blest.

2. God's mercy comeforts all who fear,
Embracing with a steadfast arm
That casts the mighty from their thrones,
But keeps the humble safe from harm.
Magnificat, magnificat!
The weak find stength; the weary, rest.
God's promise sounds from age to age:
The needy of the world are blest.

3. God's justice sends the rich away,
But feeds the poor with lavish things.
Each hungry soul now fills with joy
And joins the song that Mary sings:
Magnificat, magnificat!
To God, Creator, Christ, the Son;
And Holy Spirit triune God:
All praises to the Three in One.

Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to people of good will.
We praise you,
We bless you,
We adore you,
We glorify you,
We give you thanks for your great glory,
Lord God, heavenly King,
O God, almighty Father.
Lord Jesus Christ, Only Begotten Son,
Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father,
You take away the sins of the world,
have mercy on us;
You take away the sins of the world,
receive our prayer;
You are seated at the right hand of the Father,
have mercy on us.
For you alone are the Holy One,
You alone are the Lord,
You alone are the Most High,
Jesus Christ,
with the Holy Spirit,
in the glory of God, the Father.
Amen.

David assembled all Israel in Jerusalem to bring the ark of the Lord
to the place that he had prepared for it.
David also called together the sons of Aaron and the Levites.
The levites bore the ark of God on their shoulders with poles,
as Moses had ordained according to the word of the LORD.
David commanded the chiefs of the Levites
to appoint their kinsmen as chanters,
to play on musical insturments, harps, lyres, and cymbals,
to make a loud sound of rejoicing.
They brought in the ark of God and set it within the tent
which David had pitched for it.
Then they offered up burnt offerings and peace offerings to God.
When David had finished offering up the burnt offerings and peace offerings,
he blessed the people in the name of the Lord

The Word of the Lord. 
R.      Thanks be to God.

R.    (8)  Lord, go up to the place of your rest, you and the ark of your holiness.
Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah;
    we found it in the fields of Jaar.
Let us enter his dwelling,
    let us worship at his footstool.
R.    Lord, go up to the place of your rest, you and the ark of your holiness.
May your priests be clothed with justice;
    let your faithful ones shout merrily for joy.
For the sake of David your servant,
    reject not the plea of your anointed.
R.    Lord, go up to the place of your rest, you and the ark of your holiness.
For the LORD has chosen Zion;
    he prefers her for his dwelling.
“Zion is my resting place forever;
    in her will I dwell, for I prefer her.”
R.    Lord, go up to the place of your rest, you and the ark of your holiness.
 

Brothers and Sisters:
When that which is mortal cloths itself with immortality,
then the word that is written shall come about:

Death is swallowed up in victory
Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?

The sting of death is sin,
and the power of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God who gives us the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ

The Word of the Lord. 
R.      Thanks be to God.

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Blessed are they who hear the word of God
and observe it.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
 

While Jesus was speaking,
a woman from the crowd called out and said to him,
"Blessed is the womb that carried you
and the breasts at which you nursed."
He replied,
"Rather, blessed are those
who hear the word of God and observe it."

The Gospel of the Lord.   
R. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ. 

I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father,
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
(At the words that follow, up to and including and became man, all bow.)
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

1. Sing of Mary, pure and lowly, Virgin Mother undefiled.
Sing of God's own Son most holy, Who became her little child.
Fairest Child of fairest Mother, God the Lord who came to earth,
Word made flesh, our very brother, Takes our nature by his birth.

2.Sing of Jesus, son of Mary, In the home at Nazareth.
Toil and labor cannot weary Love enduring unto death.
Constant was the love he gave her, Though he went forth from her side,
Forth to preach, and heal, and suffer, Till on Calvary he died.

3. Glory be to God the Father; Glory be to God the Son;
Glory be to God the Spirit; Glory to the Three in One.
From the heart of blessed Mary, From all saints the song ascends,
And the Church the strain reechoes Unto earth's remotest ends.

Taste and see, taste and see
the goodness of the Lord
O taste and see, taste and see
the goodness of the Lord, of the Lord

1. I will bless the Lord at all times.
Praise shall always be on my lips;

for God has been so good to me.

Taste and see, taste and see
the goodness of the Lord
O taste and see, taste and see
the goodness of the Lord, of the Lord

2. Glorify the Lord with me.
Together let us all praise God's name.

from all my troubles I was set free.

Taste and see, taste and see
the goodness of the Lord
O taste and see, taste and see
the goodness of the Lord, of the Lord

3. Worship the Lord, all your people.
You'll want for nothing if you ask.
Taste and see that the Lord is good;
in God we need put all our trust.

Taste and see, taste and see
the goodness of the Lord
O taste and see, taste and see
the goodness of the Lord, of the Lord
