When the angel was gone back to heaven, Mary sang a sweet song of praise to God for his goodness.

Mary said, My soul praises God, and my spirit is glad because of my Saviour.

Mary called her baby her Saviour, for she knew that he would save her from hell.

I wonder not that Mary fear’d

When Gabriel to her appear’d:

How could she know he came to bring

So sweet a message from his King?

Full long the Son in heaven had stay’d

Since first the promise had been made

To shed his blood for Adam’s sin,
