Singing with Surprising Joy
Luke 1:13-19
Mary was told by the angel that she would bear a son. Then Mary sang a song, “My soul magnifies the Lord…” Zechariah was told that his wife, Elizabeth, would bear a son. Following this news, Zechariah sang a song, “By the tender mercy of our God, … give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death.” Elizabeth, his wife, also sang, “This is what the Lord has done for me in this time.” Shepherds in the fields, lost in the darkness, heard the song after seeing the baby Jesus, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace among those whom he favors!” The shepherds, too, sang of all they had heard and seen. When the prophet Simon took baby Jesus in his arms, he praised God, saying, “God, now you are dismissing your servant in peace, according to your word, for my eyes have seen your salvation.” The best way to spread Christmas joy is by singing loudly for all to hear, as Mary, Zechariah, Elizabeth, the shepherds, and Simon did. Singing about God’s great act in Jesus Christ can take us, fill us, and lead us into an experience of the living God.
