Now at last your servant can depart in peace
1 Now at last
your servant can depart in peace,
for your word
is finally fulfilled:
2 My own eyes
have witnessed your salvation, Lord,
which is seen
throughout the waiting world,
3 Light for all,
revealing you to every land;
glorious sight,
your people Israel's hope.
4 Praises be
to God the Father, Spirit, Son
Three - in - One,
the God whom we adore!
