Luke1 28-56

28 And the angel came in unto her,
and said,
Hail, thou that art highly favoured,
the Lord is with thee:
blessed art thou among women.



29 And when she saw him,
she was troubled at his saying,
and cast in her mind
what manner of salutation this should be.



30 And the angel said unto her,
Fear not, Mary:
for thou hast found favour with God.




31 And, behold,
thou shalt conceive in thy womb,
and bring forth a son,
and shalt call his name JESUS.



32 He shall be great,
and shall be called the Son of the Highest:
and the Lord God shall give unto him
the throne of his father David:




33 And he shall reign
over the house of Jacob for ever;
and of his kingdom there shall be no end.



34 Then said Mary unto the angel,
How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?



35 And the angel answered and said unto her,
The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee,
and the power of the Highest
shall overshadow thee:
therefore also that holy thing
which shall be born of thee
shall be called the Son of God.




36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth,
she hath also conceived a son in her old age:
and this is the sixth month with her,
who was called barren.



37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.



38 And Mary said,
Behold the handmaid of the Lord;
be it unto me according to thy word.
And the angel departed from her.





39 And Mary arose in those days,
and went into the hill country with haste,
into a city of Juda;



40 And entered into the house of Zacharias,
and saluted Elisabeth.



41 And it came to pass, that,
when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary,
the babe leaped in her womb;
and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:





42 And she spake out with a loud voice,
and said, Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.



43 And whence is this to me,
that the mother of my Lord should come to me?



44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy
salutation sounded in mine ears,
the babe leaped in my womb for joy.




45 And blessed is she that believed:
for there shall be a performance of those things
were told her from the Lord.





46 And Mary said,
My soul doth magnify the Lord,



47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.



48 For he hath regarded the low estate
of his handmaiden:
for, behold, from henceforth
all generations shall call me blessed.



49 For he that is mighty
hath done to me great things;
and holy is his name.




50 And his mercy is on them that fear him from
generation to generation.



51 He hath shewed strength with his arm;
he hath scattered the proud
in the imagination of their hearts.



52 He hath put down the mighty from their seats,
and exalted them of low degree.



53 He hath filled the hungry with good things;
and the rich he hath sent empty away.



54 He hath holpen his servant Israel,
in remembrance of his mercy;



55 As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham,
and to his seed for ever.



56 And Mary abode with her about three months,
and returned to her own house.

Mary, Did You Know

Mary, did you know
did you know, that your baby boy
Would one day walk on water?
Mary did you know, that your baby boy
Would save our sons and daughters?

Did you know, that your baby boy
Has come to make you new?
This Child that you delivered,
will soon deliver you

Mary did you know, that your baby boy
Will give sight to the blind man?
Mary did you know, that your baby boy
Would calm a storm with His hand?

Did you know, that your baby boy
Has walked where angels trod
And when you kiss your little baby,
you've kissed the face of God?
Oh, Mary did you know.
Mary, did you know

The blind will see, the deaf will hear,
The dead will live again
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak
Praises of the Lamb?

Mary did you know, that your baby boy
Is Lord of all creation?
Mary did you know, that your baby boy
Will one day rule the nations?

Did you know, that your baby boy
Was Heaven's perfect Lamb
this sleeping Child you're holding
Is the Great I Am
Oh Mary.
