Henry Purcell: An Evening Hymn
Thomas Cooley, tenor, with Voices of Music (Elisabeth Reed, viola da gamba; Hanneke van Proosdij, baroque organ, and David Tayler, archlute)
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 prolo
