The Porter’s Gate
Simeon’s Song
[Verse 1]
Hush your crying now, Blessed One
I've been waiting for oh, so long
Just to hold you in my arms
Makes my heart rejoice!

[Verse 2]
Perfect, beautiful, holy babe
How I've longed to see Your face!
The promised hope of Israel
You will be the light!

[Chorus]
My eyes have seen the Messiah
For Christ has finally come!
As the prophets foretold:
The Kingdom of God has come
The Kingdom of God has come
The Kingdom of God has come!

[Verse 3]
From the line of David's seed
All creation will be redeemed
Now your servant can go in peace
I have seen the Lord!
[Chorus]
My eyes have seen the Messiah
For Christ has finally come!
As the prophets foretold:
The Kingdom of God has come
The Kingdom of God has come
The Kingdom of God has come!

[Bridge]
My eyes have seen
My eyes have seen
Joy beyond belief:
I've seen the Messiah!
Oh, my eyes have seen
My eyes have seen
Joy beyond belief:
I've seen the Messiah!

[Chorus/Outro]
My eyes have seen the Messiah
For Christ has finally come!
As the prophets foretold:
The Kingdom of God has come
The Kingdom of God has come
The Kingdom of God has come!
The Kingdom of God has come!
