| A teenage girl, a Nazarite
|
| Who loves Yahweh and does what’s right
|
| Is visited by an angel
|
| She’s terrified, mystified
|
| Till he clarifies that he’s here to prophesize
|
| And says, «Fear not
|
| You who are highly favorite of God
|
| The Lord is with you»
|
| Still Mary was greatly troubled by his words
|
| (Christmas in black and white)
|
| And wondered what kind of greeting this might be
|
| And he said, «Do not be afraid, Mary
|
| For you have found favor with God?
|
| ?You will be with child, and will give birth to a son
|
| And you are to call His name Jesus
|
| (Christmas in black and white)
|
| He will be great, He will be called the Son of the Most High
|
| Mary replied, «How can these things be
|
| Since I have not yet been with a man?»
|
| The angel answered and said
|
| «The Holy Spirit shall come upon you
|
| And the power of the Most High shall shower you
|
| So the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God?
|
| (Christmas in black and white)
|
| ?Even Elizabeth, your relative
|
| Is going to have a child in her old age
|
| And she who is said to be barren is in her sixth month
|
| For nothing is impossible with God"
|
| «I am the Lord’s servant», Mary answered
|
| «May it be to me as you have said»
|
| Then the angel was gone |
