I used to sing a hymn for funerals at a Catholic Church that was this theme .
“I heard the voice of Jesus say,
Come unto me and rest.
Lay down thy weary one, lay down,
Thy head upon my breast.
I came to Jesus as I was ,
Weary , and worn and sad .
I found in him a resting place ,
And he has made me glad”.
-This was 40 years ago and I never forgot the words .

This is by far the most beautiful piece, that I am yet to experience.
There exists not enough well rounded words within any given human vocabulary, or any of the ones to ever exist combined to properly and profoundly express the deep sense of joy and satisfaction that I experience when I listen to this.

If this is not art, then I will piss in my grave for lack of a better word.
Some people just do not know what quality is when it hits them right in the face, and screams right at them "Can you bear me, asshole?! Can you fucking handle me?!"

Pardon me, I dont mean to be negative and focus on the negative here but how the FUCK can TWELVE(12) people dislike this video?
Honestly it is far beyond, for me to grasp - but then again I could care less...

I will enjoy this wonderful piece of music a couple of times once more, and save me from feeling down during yet another gloomy, dark, vinter day and night.

I moved away from England, the country of my birth, nearly 25 years ago. Watching its seemingly unstoppable decline since then I feel blessed with this sublime music that transports me back to an England now lost forever.

@peterwulff469

- this is exactly the feeling I got when first hearing it. It's like England's funeral music.

@mikeeveleigh6762

"England's funeral music" - how apt. I wish I could disagree but sadly, I can't. @@peterwulff469

I wouldn't be at all surprised if Jesus Christ returned to earth while this music was playing. Divine!

Yes! Divine! 💫🙏

@PointyTailofSatan

Personally, i think Vaughan Williams is probably the most underrated composer in the last 150 years.

Double barrelled Welsh name!

Btw george Butterworth is the most undervalued

His great-grandfather was Welsh.....that’s it.

@jimbim4405

I don't think that he IS under-valued, however his fame has yet to reach the heights that it no doubt will in the centuries to come - like ALL the greats.
