Verse 1
My soul magnifies Jehovah,
and my spirit cannot keep
from being overjoyed
at God my Savior.
He has looked on me,
the low one,
the slave girl.
He has seen my dust
and stayed.
Pre-Chorus
From now on,
every generation
will say I am blessed.
From now on,
every nation
will lift up Your name.
Chorus
All generations call You blessed
All generations call You blessed
You lift the lowly up
You fill the empty cup
All generations call You blessed
(holy, holy)
Verse 2
You scatter the proud
like chaff in the wind.
You pull the strong
from their silver chairs.
You feed the hungry
with open hands.
You send the rich away
with nothing
but their own hands.
Pre-Chorus
From now on,
every generation
will say I am blessed.
From now on,
every nation
will lift up Your name.
Chorus
All generations call You blessed
All generations call You blessed
You lift the lowly up
You fill the empty cup
All generations call You blessed
(holy, holy)
Bridge
You remember mercy
through the ages.
You keep Your promise
to the children.
You lift the humble
and You keep them.
You are faithful
to the end.
