"Now, Master, thou canst let thy servant go, and go in peace, as thou didst promise;

for mine eyes have seen thy saving power

to be a light of revelation for the Gentiles and a glory to thy people Israel."

and the holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon him; and a voice came from heaven, "Thou art my son, the Beloved, to-day have I become thy father."

He said to them, "When you pray, say, Father, thy name be revered, thy Reign begin;

saying, "Father, if it please thee, take this cup away from me. But thy will, not mine, be done."

Then with a loud cry Jesus said, "Father, I trust my spirit to thy hands," and with these words he expired.
