My Soul Doth Magnify the Lord

Hymnal: The Hymnal #A57 (1950) Lyrics: 1 My soul doth magnify the Lord, and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. 2 For He hath regarded the lowliness of His handmaiden. 3 For behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. 4 For He that is mighty hath magnified me, and holy is His Name. 5 And His mercy is on them that fear Him throughout all generations. 6 He hath showed strength with His arm; He hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. 7 He hath put down the mighty from their seat; and hath exalted the humble and meek. 8 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich He hath sent empty away. 9 He remembering His mercy hath holpen His servant Israel; as He promised to our forefather Abraham and his seed for ever. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Ludwig van Beethoven

1770 - 1827 Person Name: Beethoven Composer of "[My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour]" in Carmina Sanctorum A giant in the history of music, Ludwig van Beethoven (b. Bonn, Germany, 1770; d. Vienna, Austria, 1827) progressed from early musical promise to worldwide, lasting fame. By the age of fourteen he was an accomplished viola and organ player, but he became famous primarily because of his compositions, including nine symphonies, eleven overtures, thirty piano sonatas, sixteen string quartets, the Mass in C, and the Missa Solemnis. He wrote no music for congregational use, but various arrangers adapted some of his musical themes as hymn tunes; the most famous of these is ODE TO JOY from the Ninth Symphony. Although it would appear that the great calamity of Beethoven's life was his loss of hearing, which turned to total deafness during the last decade of his life, he composed his greatest works during this period.

1819 - 1900 Person Name: E. G. Monk Composer of "[My soul doth magnify the Lord]" in The Hymnal

Samuel Sebastian Wesley

1810 - 1876 Person Name: Samuel Wesley Composer of "[My soul doth magnify the Lord: and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour]" in Christian Praise Samuel Sebastian Wesley (b. London, England, 1810; d. Gloucester, England, 1876) was an English organist and composer. The grandson of Charles Wesley, he was born in London, and sang in the choir of the Chapel Royal as a boy. He learned composition and organ from his father, Samuel, completed a doctorate in music at Oxford, and composed for piano, organ, and choir. He was organist at Hereford Cathedral (1832-1835), Exeter Cathedral (1835-1842), Leeds Parish Church (1842­-1849), Winchester Cathedral (1849-1865), and Gloucester Cathedral (1865-1876). Wesley strove to improve the standards of church music and the status of church musicians; his observations and plans for reform were published as A Few Words on Cathedral Music and the Music System of the Church (1849). He was the musical editor of Charles Kemble's A Selection of Psalms and Hymns (1864) and of the Wellburn Appendix of Original Hymns and Tunes (1875) but is best known as the compiler of The European Psalmist (1872), in which some 130 of the 733 hymn tunes were written by him.
