Composed by John L. Bell. Holy Family B, Presentation of the Lord. Choral. Sacred. Octavo. 4 pages. GIA Publications #5161. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-5161).

Text Source: Luke 2:29-32. Scripture: Luke 2:29–32.

A short song composed by John Bell in a Taizé-like form. The Latin Nunc dimittis refrain becomes the hummed accompaniment to English verses 1 & 2, with verse 3 being a doxology sung as a descant over the final sung refrain. The final six-fold “amen” is worthy of Peter Lutkin or any of his imitators.
