Mary’s Psalm
The Lyrics
Written by Yvonne Wall & Carolyn McDonald

When Gabriel came to me, he addressed me like a queen
I would be the mother of my own Messiah
I could scarcely breathe, I could hardly believe
That He had chosen me

Could it really be, that a village girl like me
Could magnify the Father and His Word?
I became the lamp for the light of the world
The embryonic fire of the Lord

Hallelujah! My soul is filled with joy!
And my heart cannot stop singing Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! For this precious baby boy
The world will always sing Hallelujah!

His growing hands were guided
to smooth the roughened wood
Sanding all the blemishes creating something good
And it’s beautiful, like a miracle
If you don’t know this man I think you should

I treasure every witness and the healing in his hands
I ponder all the things he taught, the power of this man
To climb the cross, so that none were lost
The price He paid is hard to understand

Hallelujah! My soul is filled with joy!
And my heart cannot stop singing Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! For this precious baby boy
The world will always sing Hallelujah!

From the manger bed in Bethlehem
To the foot of Calvary Hill
Kings and shepherds followed him
Wise men seek him still

He is full of grace and truth
This babe from Bethlehem
A gift from the almighty one
The Savior of all men
And it’s wonderful! This Miracle!
Because this child was born we’ll live again!

Hallelujah! My soul is filled with joy!
And my heart cannot stop singing Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! For this precious baby boy
The world will always sing
The world will always sing
The world will always sing Hallelujah!
