Arvo Pärt’s Nunc dimittis

Nunc dimittis, the Song of Simeon, from the Feast of the Presentation:

Lord, you now have set your servant free
to go in peace as you have promised;

For these eyes of mine have seen the Savior,
whom you have prepared for all the world to see:

A Light to enlighten the nations,
and the glory of your people Israel.
