This Christmas season I have been reading an advent through to epiphany book called 'Beginnings and Endings (and what happens inbetween)' by Maggi Dawn. A couple of nights ago, just before I went to sleep I decided to listen to the last bonus track on Coldplay's X&Y before I read the chapter for the day, just because I like the song, and then I read all about Simeon. The song and the reading fitted together so completely I wondered whether it had been written with Simeon in mind all along:
Steal my heart and hold my tongue.
I feel my time, my time has come.
Let me in, unlock the door.
I've never felt this way before.
The wheels just keep on turning,
The drummer begins to drum,
I don't know which way I'm going,
I don't know which way I've come.
Hold my hand inside your hands,
I need someone who understands.
I need someone, someone who hears,
For you, I've waited all these years.
For you, I'd wait 'til kingdom come.
Until my day, my day is done.
And say you'll come, and set me free,
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me.
