Epic Song - "Holy is His Name" by John Michael Talbot

This beautiful song by John Michael Talbot is based on the Magnificat, also known as the Canticle of Mary.

This is a wonderful live performance by JMT, although I really wish it included all the verses. My absolute favorite version of this song is performed by a girl in the choir at my church. Maybe I'll find a way to share that one also at some point.



Lyrics by John Michael Talbot

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
and my spirit exalts in God my Savior.
For He has looked with mercy on my lowliness,
and my name will be forever exalted.
For the mighty God has done great things for me,
and His mercy will reach from age to age.

And holy, holy, holy is His name.

He has mercy in ev’ry generation.
He has revealed His power and His glory.
He has cast down the mighty in their arrogance,
and has lifted up the meek and the lowly.
He has come to help His servant Israel;
He remembers His promise to our fathers

And holy, holy, holy is His name.
