(Canticle of Zechariah)

CHORUS:
Blessed be the Lord,
Blessed be the Lord,
Blessed be the Lord,
Blessed be the Lord.

Blessed be the Lord,
The God of Israel
He has come to His people
And set them free.
He has raised up for us
A mighty savior:
Born of His servant David.

(CHORUS)

He has promised of old,
He would save us,
Through His prophets of old,
From our enemies.
He promised to show
Mercy to our fathers,
To remember His covenant of old.

(CHORUS)

This was the oath He swore
To our father Abraham,
To set us free to worship
Him without fear.
Holy and righteous in the sight of God
All the days of our lives.

And you, my child, are the prophet,
Of the most High.
You will go before the Lord
To prepare His way
To announce the news of salvation
By forgiveness of all our sins.

(CHORUS)

(CHORUS)
