The 2 New Testament Odes

 

1. Song Of The Mother Of God from Luke, I: 46-55
2. The Song Of Zacharias from Luke, I: 68-79

The Song Of Zacharias is known as The Benedictus. The elderly priest Zacharias was visited by an angel who told him his barren wife Elizabeth would bear a child who would do great things for God. Apparently this made him burst into song.
