Canticle of Zechariah (Luke 1:68-79)

“Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, for he has visited and redeemed his people,
and has given us a mighty Savior in the house of David, his servant,
as he had announced long before, through the mouth of his holy prophets,
to save us from our enemies and from the hands of all who hate us.
Thus he had mercy on our fathers and remembered his holy Covenant,
of the oath he made to our father Abraham
to grant us that, free from fear, torn from the hands of our enemies,
let us serve him in holiness and justice, under his gaze, throughout our lives.
And you, child, will be called Prophet of the Most High, because you will go before the Lord preparing his ways,
to make known to his People salvation through the forgiveness of sins;
thanks to the merciful tenderness of our God, who will bring us from heaven the visit of the rising Sun,
to enlighten those who are in darkness and in the shadow of death, and guide our steps along the path of peace.”
