lyrics

There was a man of God named Simeon, he was righteous and devout
His faith it did not waiver; this man had no doubt
But he cried to God when will you reconcile yourself with man
The Spirit moved him to the temple courts where he met the great I Am

Chorus:
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Your King has come to you, O Israel
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Has come to thee, O Israel

Sovereign Lord, as you have promised, dismiss your servant now in peace
For my eyes have seen your salvation, now joy will never cease
A light of revelation to the Gentiles this little baby will be
Your people Israel will be glorified, I see Emmanuel in front of me

We no longer have to worry, salvation’s not a distant hope
God has done what he said he would, sin’s license has been revoked
Death no longer has its power, the serpent’s head’s been crushed
Don’t wait another hour and see dust return to dust
But instead…
