John Michael Talbot - Go In Peace Lyrics

(Canticle of Simeon)

Chorus:
Now let your servant go in peace,
Your word has been fulfilled;
Now let your servant go in peace,
In the glory of Israel.

My eyes have seen salvation
Which you surely have prepared,
In the sight of every people of earth
A light to the nations.

(CHORUS)

The child is destined
For the downfall and rise,
Of many children of Israel
The child is contradiction's sign.

And you yourself shall be pierced
Through the heart with a sword,
That the thoughts and hearts of many on earth
Shall surely be exposed.

(CHORUS)
