Sleep Soundly in Jesus


Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray Thee Lord, my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray Thee Lord, my soul to take

May I sleep soundly in Jesus like a little child
Secure in my knowledge that we are reconciled
Resting in wonder and peace in the night
Safe in His arms where I find my delight

If I should live for other days
I pray Thee Lord, to guide my ways
Your Love to guard me through the night,
And wake me in the morning's light.

Refreshed by the Watcher who never sleeps
He never slumbers, His vigil He keeps
May I sleep sound in Jesus like a little child
Dreaming the dreams of one blessed and beguiled

May angels watch me through the night,
And keep me in their blessed sight.
When in the morning light I wake,
Show me the path of love to take.

When in the morning light I wake,
Show me the path of love to take.
When in the morning light I wake,
Show me the path of love to take.

Psalm 121:4/ Psalm 127:2b - He gives to his beloved even in his sleep.
