Blessed be the Lord God of Israel
For he hath visited and redeemed his people
And hath raised up a mighty salvation for us
In the house of his servant David
As he spake by the mouth of his holy Prophets
Which have been since the world began
That we should be saved from our enemies
And from the hands of all that hate us
To perform the mercy promised to our forefathers
And to remember his holy covenant
To perform the oath which he sware
To our forefather Abraham: that he would give us
That we being delivered out of the
Hands of our enemies
Might serve him without fear
In holiness and righteousness before him
All the days of our life
And thou, child, shalt be called the
Prophet of the Highest
For thou shalt go before the face of the Lord
To prepare his ways
To give knowledge of salvation unto his people
For the remission of their sins
Through the tender mercy of our God
Whereby the day-spring from on high
Hath visited us
To give light to them that sit in darkness
And in the shadow of death: and to guide our feet
Into the way of peace
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son
And to the Holy Ghost
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be
World without end
Amen"
