    Does anyone have an organ piece based on this hymn that they would be able to share? Thank you.

    Henry,

    You're going to have to help us a bit. The text Lumen.... is a portion of the Nunc Dimittis, which is sung in the Office at Compline. What tune did you have in mind?

    Yes-- I'm assuming you mean the antiphon sung during the distribution/blessing of candles on Candlemas. Guilmant has two pieces in book 1 of the liturgical organist-- first two pieces in the book:

    The second one, the fugue, is pretty fun. Good luck!

    Try, (the brackets mess up the link Franco gave). The first two pieces in Book 1.
