Throughout the history of Christianity, Mary has been a beacon of
hope to many who look to her. While Christians have always prayed
to Mary, they have also sung to her in times of joy and sorrow.
Sing of Mary analyzes Marian hymnody throughout Christianity-and
particularly in the Roman Catholic Church in the United States from
1854 to today-focusing not only on the texts and music but also on
the contexts out of which these hymns came. By using a holistic
methodology-drawing from anthropology, history, liturgy,
musicology, psychology, sociology, and theology-this study takes an
interdisciplinary approach toward studying Marian theology and
devotion through the lens of hymnody. This volume, accessible to
both laypeople and academics, provides readers with a clear and
full understanding of Marian hymnody by looking at many examples
throughout the history of Christianity up through the present, thus
shedding light on the history of Marian devotion and theology. The
work concludes by providing hope for the future of Marian
congregational song, particularly by exploring how the Magnificat
can help Marian congregational song be meaningful to a wide range
of Christians.
