EMV and Music on Main present Iestyn Davies (countertenor) and Fretwork Viol Consort performing Henry Purcell's The Evening Hymn, arranged by Silas Wollston. From October 2019 at Vancouver's Christ Church Cathedral.
Now, now that the sun hath veil’d his light And bid the world goodnight; To the soft bed my body I dispose, But where shall my soul repose? Dear, dear God, even in Thy arms, And can there be any so sweet security! Then to thy rest, O my soul! And singing, praise the mercy That prolongs thy days. Alleluia!
