We used this at my late wife's funeral, by kind permission of the Head of Rugby School - it means a lot to me.
This girl has achieved the mastery of singing beyond her youth.
Perfection. Seemingly effortless perfect pitch singing by that young woman. Pure trumpet sound too.
Break my heart
Beautiful and fabulous voice
Long last age
❣️
This is effortless singing perfection that after 40 years of lessons and performance is still elusive for me. The trumpet is not bad either. Brava.
What a wonderful voice!

Great singing, trumpet, organ, and video. I will be returning to this on a regular basis for the rest of my life.
Lovely rendition.
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.
Stunning!
Absolutely stunning!
I have found peace
*A light to lighten the Gentiles and thy people Israel.*
Simeon's prayer as he held the Saviour in his arms is Pauline in its theology and reminds us why we are Christian.
Beautiful
Am I the only one to revisit this masterpiece sung by this young woman?
We should all be in the Lord's Book......but alas....evil overwhelms many and they seek not the Christ.
Superb
what a banger
Just perfect
Full of purity - wonderful
Brilliant
This is absolutely gorgeous! Has it really been three years? I hope Harry and Meghan enjoyed it as much as I did. Perhaps they sent you a thank you card? I also hope Ischia is doing well and continuing with her singing career.
🙏👍
Is this beautiful rendition on a CD?
What is the meaning of this song?
Before the Birth of Jesus, there was an old priest who had been granted a premonition that he would not die until he had seen the "Messiah" promised to the Jewish people by the Prophets of Israel, (also called by the Greek word "the Christ" from which we get "Christian").
When the Child was born. the parents brought him to the Temple of the eighth day, for presentation and for ritual circumcision. The old man, whose name was Simeon, spoke these words "Lord, now let your servant depart in peace, because my eyes have seen the one who is to be a Saviour, a light to guide the ungodly, and the glory of your people, Israel".
These words are traditionally recited or sung in Christian churches in the evening. There are many different tunes, ranging from simple easy chants to beautiful performances like this one.
Poor organist doesn't get a mention...
Beautiful
