Nunc Dimittis

Alexandre Gretchaninov (1864-1956)

 

Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace

According to thy word.
For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people;
To be a light to lighten the Gentiles

And to be the glory of thy people Israel.
