Mary was so full of joy that she sang a song to God! “My heart praises the Lord! I am so happy in God my Savior!”
She sang, “God noticed me, even though I'm not important. He has done great things for me. Holy is His name!”
Mary sang that God lifts up humble people, feeds hungry people, and always keeps His promises, just like He promised Abraham long ago. Mary stayed with Elizabeth about three months, then went home.
