Doxology. A doxology (Ancient Greek: δοξολογία doxologia, from δόξα, doxa 'glory' and - λογία, - logia 'saying') [1][2][3] is a short hymn of praises to God in various forms of Christian worship, often added to the end of canticles, psalms, and hymns. The tradition derives from a similar practice in the Jewish synagogue, [4 ...
The "Hail Mary" prayer in Savonarola's exposition reads: "Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen." [c] The petition was commonly added around the time of the Council of Trent.
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. Some ancient authorities have Elizabeth, rather than Mary, speaking the Magnificat. [3] [4] The Magnificat is one of the eight most ancient Christian hymns and perhaps the earliest Marian hymn.
The doxology has been interpreted as connected with the final petition: "Deliver us from evil". The kingdom, the power and the glory are the Father's, not of our antagonist's, who is subject to him to whom Christ will hand over the kingdom after he has destroyed all dominion, authority and power ( 1 Corinthians 15 :24).

Conditor alme siderum. The Latin “sidus” (“siderum”) means more than just a “star”, encompassing also the sun, moon, and planets, as well as all the heavenly constellations and comets and meteors. [1] Conditor alme siderum is a seventh-century Latin hymn used during the Christian liturgical season of Advent. [2]
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. O Mary, by thy pure and Immaculate Conception, make my body pure and my soul holy. [7]
