As soon as Zechariah’s voice returns, his first words are gratitude and blessing. He
sings a story of praise for God’s protection and promise, and then he showers a
blessing on his newborn son. He sings a story of hope. After Elizabeth exclaims
blessings upon Mary, Mary sings: “My soul magnifies God; my spirit rejoices in God.”
Mary sings about a God of liberation who pulls the powerful from their thrones
and lifts up the lowly. Mary sings a story of hope, one in which justice and joy are
interwoven. As we prepare to celebrate Christ’s birth, may we also sing stories of
hope, justice, and joy.
