O

come, O Branch of Jesse’s stem,
unto your own and rescue them!
From depths of hell your people save
and give them victory o’er the grave
Best Advent Ever Reflection from Dynamic Catholic

come and save man, whom you formed from the dust!
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel 

Mary said:

“My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord;
my spirit rejoices in God my savior.
for he has looked upon his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.
He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
and has scattered the proud in their conceit.
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children for ever.”

Mary remained with Elizabeth about three months
and then returned to her home


Blessing
