faithful vigil ended
Select language to translate this lyric
Faithful vigil ended,
Watching, waiting cease;
Master, grant thy servant
His discharge in peace.
All thy Spirit promised,
All the Father willed;
Now these eyes behold it
Perfectly fulfilled.
This thy great deliverance
Sets thy people free;
Christ, their light, uplifted
All the nations see.
Christ, thy people's glory!
Watching, doubting, cease:
Grant to us thy servants
Our discharge in peace.
