There are no text/lyrics; these File were generated purely for Choral Rehearsing purposes (using a published piano-reduction Score), and so don't look pretty even though they should sound reasonable (though that depends very much on your hardware/software; mine is a Soundblaster AWE64 Gold).
Voice-emphasised Midi Files of the whole work can be downloaded for free from my Website (above). The Site also contains Midi Files for several rather more modern Composers, for which NWC versions may be available.
You can freely and lawfully download a printable score for this Work from http://imslp.org/wiki/Evening_Se.....urcell,_Henry%29 - IMSLP, though it may not be exactly the same as the one used to make the Noteworthy Files, and it probably won't be as good as a proper paid-for engraved and printed score.
There is an excellent performance of this Work by the Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford,
conducted by Simon Preston on YouTube starting at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoEn-e2zKzU
