Margo B. Smith: SONGS
Handmaid of the Lord
(Production: Michael Salacuse)
Written by Margo B. Smith
An example of total acceptance of God's will is illustrated in this song.
(Luke 1:38)
Angel Gabriel was sent from God
To a town of Galilee
He had a message for the favored one
The Virgin Mary
The news he had to share
Could be on our front page
She’d conceive and bear a son
Who would rule from age to age
By the Holy Spirit
The child would be conceived
Known as the Son of God
He’d be great and known as holy
She’d name him Jesus
Son of the Most High
A message of trust and love
Were heard in her reply
Chorus
She said she is the handmaid of the Lord
Angel Gabriel heard
May it be done to me
According to your word
She bore our Savior
Now Jesus is adored
She is the handmaid of the Lord
The Virgin Mary, the blessed one
Her love for God is ample
What a world of peace and joy
If all could follow her example
To trust completely
And surrender to God’s plan
For her words to be lived by
Every child, woman and man
Chorus
She is the handmaid of the Lord
She is the handmaid
Chorus
She is the handmaid
She is the handmaid
She is the handmaid of the Lord
