DAY FIVE

Virgin most humble,
in placing Jesus
in holy old Simeon’s arms,
thou didst fill his soul

Give our hearts

Let us Pray

Almighty, everlasting God,
we pray Thy majesty
that as Thine Only-begotten Son
was presented in the Temple
in the substance of our flesh,
so Thou wouldst enable us
to present ourselves before Thee,
with clean hearts.
Amen
