Simeon's Song Lyrics

Now You can dismiss Your servant in peace.

As you have promised, so you have done.

This child will make a child of me

Just before night my morning has come!



Some will say that the Lord need not come,

Holding their torches to light their own way.

But I am old, hopes have faded away

Save this one hope in my arms this day.



My eyes have seen your salvation

You are the LORD, Your lips do not lie

Promised to Adam, promised to me

My eyes have seen. Now I can die.
