These ""Gospel canticles"" are now an integral part of the Christian liturgical tradition. The parallel structure in Luke regarding the births of John the Baptist and Jesus, extends to the three canticles Benedictus (Song of Zechariah), the Nunc dimittis and the Magnificat.

"Magnificat The Magnificat (Latin for ""[My soul] magnifies [the Lord]"") is a canticle, also known as the Song of Mary, the Canticle of Mary and, in the Byzantine tradition, the Ode of the Theotokos (). It is traditionally incorporated into the liturgical services of the Catholic Church (at vespers) and of the Eastern Orthodox churches (at the morning services). It is one of the eight most ancient Christian hymns and perhaps the earliest Marian hymn. Its name comes from the incipit of the Latin version of the canticle's text. The text of the canticle is taken directly from the Gospel"

In the narrative, after Mary greets Elizabeth, who is pregnant with John the Baptist, the latter moves within Elizabeth's womb. Elizabeth praises Mary for her faith (using words partially reflected in the Hail Mary), and Mary responds with what is now known as the Magnificat. Within the whole of Christianity, the Magnificat is most frequently recited within the Liturgy of the Hours. In Western Christianity, the Magnificat is most often sung or recited during the main evening prayer service: Vespers in"

The prayer incorporates two greetings to Mary in Saint Luke's Gospel: ""Hail, the Lord is with thee."" and ""Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb."" In mid-13th-century Western Europe the prayer consisted only of these words with the single addition of the name ""Mary"" after the word ""Hail"", as is evident from the commentary of Saint Thomas Aquinas on the prayer. The first of the two passages from Saint Luke's Gospel is the greeting of the Angel Gabriel"
"Blessed Redeemer Blessed Redeemer is a prominent Christian hymn with lyrics by Avis Christiansen and music by Harry Dixon Loes of the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, Illinois.

"Stabat Mater The Stabat Mater is a 13th-century Christian hymn to Mary, which portrays her suffering as Jesus Christ's mother during his crucifixion. Its author may be either the Franciscan friar Jacopone da Todi or Pope Innocent III. The title comes from its first line, Stabat Mater dolorosa, which means ""the sorrowful mother was standing"". The hymn is sung at the liturgy on the memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows. The ""Stabat Mater"" has been set to music by many Western composers, most famously by Palestrina (~1590), Vivaldi (1712), Domenico (1715) and Alessandro Scarlatti (1723), Pergolesi (1736), Joseph Haydn (1767),"

Among Protestant groups, the Magnificat may also be sung during worship services, especially in the Advent season during which these verses are traditionally read. Mary's Magnificat, recorded only in Luke's Gospel, is one of four hymns, distilled from a collection of early Jewish-Christian canticles, which complement the promise-fulfillment theme of Luke's infancy narrative. These songs are Mary's Magnificat; Zechariah's Benedictus (1:67–79); the angels' ""Gloria in Excelsis Deo"" (2:13–14); and Simeon's (2:28–32). In form and content, these four"
