Concert Festival: Nunc Dimitis or "Now you are letting your servant depart in peace"

In St. Petersburg, a concert was given to bring people of all kinds to hear more about Jesus. Please pray for the impact of such events to bring many to Him by faith! Historically, this time of year the Church calendar celebrates the presentation of Jesus at the Temple as the first born, where offerings of thanks are given. Luke records what happens in his gospel (Luke 2:25-35) like this, with verses 29-35 as the main choral text:

25 Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. 26 And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ. 27 And he came in the Spirit into the temple, and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the Law, 28 he took him up in his arms and blessed God and said,

29 “Lord, now you are letting your servant[e] depart in peace

    according to your word;

30 for my eyes have seen your salvation

31 that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples,

32 a light for revelation to the Gentiles,

    and for glory to your people Israel.”

33 And his father and his mother marveled at what was said about him. 34 And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is opposed 35 (and a sword will pierce through your own soul also), so that thoughts from many hearts may be revealed.”
