Mary’s Song of Her Savior

Luke 1:46-55

“My soul magnifies the Lord,
47 And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.

48 For He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant;
For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed.
49 For He who is mighty has done great things for me,

And holy is His name.

50 And His mercy is on those who fear Him
From generation to generation.

51 He has shown strength with His arm;
He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

52 He has put down the mighty from their thrones,
And exalted the lowly.

53 He has filled the hungry with good things,
And the rich he has sent away empty.

54 He has helped His servant Israel,
In remembrance of His mercy,
55 As He spoke to our fathers,
To Abraham and to his seed forever.”

Move Me Closer

Move me closer,
Move me closer,
Move me closer to the Child.
Let me see Him;
Let me hold His hand.
Move me closer to the Child.

Move me closer,
Move me closer,
Move me closer to the Child.
Let me see Him;
Let me hold His hand.
Move me closer to the Child.

Move me closer,
Move me closer,
Move me closer to the Child.
Let me see Him;
Let me hold His hand.
Move me closer to the Child.

Move me closer to the Child.

Search me…

…O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
See if there is any offensive way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting.
Psalm 139: 23-24  (NIV)

SEARCH ME, O GOD
Search me, O God, and know my heart today,
Try me, O Savior, know my thoughts, I pray;
See if there be some wicked way in me;
Cleanse me from every sin, and set me free.
I praise Thee, Lord, for cleansing me from sin;
Fulfill Thy word and make me pure within;
Fill me with fire, where once I burned with shame;
Grant my desire to magnify Thy name.
Lord, take my life, and make it wholly Thine;
Fill my poor heart with Thy great love divine;
Take all my will, my passion, self and pride;
I now surrender, Lord, in me abide.
O Holy Ghost, revival comes from Thee;
Send a revival, start the work in me;
Thy Word declares Thou wilt supply our need;
For blessings now, O Lord, I humbly plead.

–  James Edwin Orr  -1936
