Song of Simeon

1.  Now may Your servant, Lord,
    According to Your word,
    Depart in exultation.
    My peace shall be serene,
    For now my eyes have seen
    Your wonderful salvation.

2.  You did for all prepare
    This gift so great, so rare,
    Fulfilling prophets' story--
    A light to show the way
    To Gentiles gone astray,
    And unto Israel's glory.
