Lutheran Hymn Project - In His Temple Now Behold Him

In his temple now behold him
See the long-expected Lord
Ancient prophets had foretold him
God has sent the promised Word
Now to praise him, his redeemed
Shall break forth with one accord

In the arms of her who bore him
Virgin pure, behold him lie
While his aged saints adore him
Ere in perfect faith they die
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Lo, the incarnate God Most High!

Jesus, by your presentation
When they blessed you, weak and poor
Make us see your great salvation
Seal us with your promise sure
And present us, in your glory
To your Father, cleansed and pure

Prince and author of salvation
Be your boundless love our theme
Jesus, praise to you be given
By the world you did redeem
With the Father and the Spirit
God of majesty supreme!
