No. 2, I went to sleep; and now I am refresh'd (Soul of Gerontius) - Edward Gardner/London Philharmonic Orchestra/Allan Clayton
Lyrics by：John Henry Newman
Composed by：Edward Elgar
Produced by：Anthony Sellors
I went to sleep and now I am refreshed
A strange refreshment for I feel in me
An inexpressive lightness and a sense
Of freedom as I were at length myself
And ne'er had been before
How still it is
I hear no more the busy beat of time
No nor my fluttering breath nor struggling pulse
Nor does one moment differ from the next
This silence pours a solitariness
Into the very essence of my soul
And the deep rest so soothing and so sweet
Hath something too of sternness and of pain
Another marvel someone has me fast
Within his ample palm
A uniform and gentle pressure tells me I am not
Self moving but borne forward on my way
And hark
I hear a singing yet in sooth
I cannot of that music rightly say
Whether I hear or touch or taste the tones
Oh what a heart-subduing melody
