Text:The Song of Simeon

345a. The Song of Simeon

29 Lord, let me now depart in peace
Who have thy servant been.
30 After thy word. For now mine eyes
Have thy salvation seen.
34 Ev'n that which thou prepared hast,
Before all people's face.
32 Light to the Gentiles, glory to
Thy people Isra'ls race.
