Luke Chapter 2 v 21-35

Our theme for Advent 2016 is "Songs of Joy, Songs of Deliverance".

For the first Sunday of 2017, we look at the song of Simeon, who having been promised he would not die until he had seen the Lord's promised Messiah, meets Mary and Joseph as they enter the temple with their newborn son.

"God, you can now release your servant;
    release me in peace as you promised.
With my own eyes I’ve seen your salvation;
    it’s now out in the open for everyone to see:
A God-revealing light to the non-Jewish nations,
    and of glory for your people Israel."
