About
Song of Mary: The Evangelist Saint Luke describes how the pregnant Mother of God intones a prayer of thanks which in Latin begins with the words “Magnificat anima mea Dominum”, and in the King James version “My soul doth magnify the Lord”. This Magnificat has over time found its way into divine service as a song of praise and has inspired composers down the ages from Monteverdi to Penderecki.
