1 David Slater Magnificat for a Proserous World SSATB a caella

2 2 Magnificat Magnificat anima mea Dominum, et exsultavit siritus meus in Deo salvatore meo, quia resexit humilitatem ancillae suae. Ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicent omnes generationes, quia fecit mihi magna, qui otens est, et sanctum nomen eius, et misericordia eius in rogenies et rogenies timentibus eum. Fecit otentiam in brachio suo, disersit suerbos mente cordis sui; deosuit otentes de sede et exaltavit humiles; esurientes imlevit bonis et divites dimisit inanes. Susceit Israel uerum suum, recordatus misericordiae, sicut locutus est ad atres nostros, Abraham et semini eius in saecula English translation: My soul glorifies the Lord, my sirit rejoices in God, my Saviour. He looks on his servant in her lowliness; henceforth all ages will call me blessed. The Almighty works marvels for me. Holy his name! His mercy is from age to age, on those who fear him. He uts forth his arm in strength and scatters the roud-hearted. He casts the mighty from their thrones and raises the lowly. He fills the starving with good things, sends the rich away emty. He rotects Israel, his servant, remembering his mercy, the mercy romised to our fathers, to Abraham and his sons forever.

3 3 Words of Poe Francis Ideologies are always rigid, always. When a Christian becomes a discile of an ideology He has lost the faith, he is no longer a discile of Jesus. It is a serious illness. Society has forgotten how to exerience comassion. We have become used to the suering of others. Has any one wet for these eole on the boats? For the young mothers carrying their babies? The culture of roserity deadens us. The thirst for ower and ossessions knows no limits. In a world where there is so much wealth, so many resources to feed everyone, It is unfathomable that there are so many hungry children, Without education, so many oor. Poverty in the world is a scandal. We are living in a time of crisis. Man is not in charge today, money rules. Men and women are sacrificed to the idols of rofit and consumtion. Meanwhile, the excluded are still waiting.
