1226. With Mary let my soul rejoice

Author: David Mowbray

With mary let my soul rejoice,
and praise God’s holy name—
his saving love from first to last,
from age to age, the same!

2. How strong his arm, how great his power!
The proud he will disown;
the meek and humble he exalts
to share his glorious throne.

3. The rich our God will send away
and feed the hungry poor;
the arms of love remain outstretched
at mercy’s open door.

4. So shall God’s promise be fulfilled,
to Israel firmly made:
a child is born, a Son is given
whose crown will never fade.

5. All glory to the Father, Son
and Spirit now proclaim;
with Mary let the world rejoice
and praise God’s holy name!
