Lyrics

Blessed be the Lord God of Israel,
For he has looked favourably on his people and redeemed them.
He has raised up a mighty saviour for us
In the house of his servant David.

Instrumental

As he spoke through the mouth of his prophets,
As he spoke through his holy prophets from of old,
That we would be saved from our enemies
And from the hand of all those who hate us.

Thus he has shown the mercy promised to our ancestors,
And has remembered his holy covenant,
The oath that he swore to our ancestor Abraham,
To grant us that we, being rescued from the hands of our enemies,
Might serve him without fear, in holiness and righteousness
Before him all our days.

And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Most High;
For you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways,
To give knowledge of salvation to his people
By the forgiveness of their sins.

By the tender mercy of our God, the dawn from on high
Will break upon us,
To give light to those who sit in darkness
The shadow of death,
To guide our feet in peace.

And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Most High;
For you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways,
To give knowledge of salvation to his people
By the forgiveness of their sins.
