The Song of Simeon, Luke, 2. 29.
1
Now let thy Servant, Lord, departin Peace, to quiet Rest,
Since I have thy Salvation seen,
and with the same am blest:
2
The Prophecies are now fulfill'd,thy Promises are true;
And thy Mysterious Love's disclos'd,
in all thy Peoples view.
3
A Light to lighten the Dark Earth,now this bright Sun appears,
9
sweet Comforts shall them cheer.
4
Well may the long expected Sight,make Israel's Joy abound;
Before with special Favours Grac'd,
but now with Glory Crown'd.
