Magnificat

from Canticle of Creation by Simon de Voil

/

lyrics

My soul shall praise and magnify you Lord
Yes I will come, Yes I have come.
I hear your voice it's calling out my name
Into my life, You shall be born

All generations praise to hold with me
The sacred heart, my beating heart,
My soul is placed into this fire of love
Yes it becomes, God's will be done

The proud cannot hear beyond their words
Their thoughts enclosed, so stale and old
The rich cannot receive what they don't own
This emptiness, the spaciousness

All generations praise to hold with me
The sacred heart, my beating heart,
My soul is placed into this fire of love
Yes it becomes, God's will be done

Spread out the feast, let those in hunger come
Your face be shown, your love made known.
The humble hear your voice, with you they sing
Magnificat, Magnificat
All generations praise to hold with me
The sacred heart, my beating heart,
My soul is placed into this fire of love
Yes it becomes, God's will be done

Reach out to touch the world that is to come
Magnificat, magnificat

[source inspiration = Luke 1:46–55]
