Simeon is in the temple courts waiting to see the Messiah that God promised him. An elderly couple brings their infant for blessing, and Simeon takes the baby in his arms. He realizes this small, ordinary child is the Savior he has been waiting for. Overcome with joy at seeing God's promise fulfilled, Simeon sings praise that he has now seen the salvation of God and can die in peace.

Another time to come into the temple courts To look around and wonder if he came.
O Lord what should I look for?
How will I know it’s Him? Will he be tall and handsome, Or accompanied by others who all know That he is the One for whom I wait?
Another day – and this time, Lord
You lead me to the temple court – And I’ve been here before, Lord And went home with unaccomplished hope.
But this day, Lord, I see a couple
Carrying their child for blessing – And I doubt that this is what I’m waiting for - Until I hold the infant in my arms And he is all baby – and they Have only the poorest sacrifice The law allows!
Oh Lord it’s Him!
I scarce can speak – for in my arms I hold the Saviour of mankind And he is small – so small – And such a child!
My voice is raised in benediction!
You kept your promise – And I hold Him in my arms - Whom men and angels know, And mother senses –
This is the One
The Christ The Hope The satisfaction – And you did not disappoint me For I hold Him and I see Your salvation!
Oh God – dismiss me now
For all my life’s ambition is achieved And He whom you did send I hold And know that You are God!
