BEDTIME2 OF 2

BEDTIME1 OF 2

Off to bed I go tonight.Even in the dark, You are my light.Diligently cared for within Your sight.Thank You for how You hold me tight.

“[God] gives sleep to those he loves” (Psalm 127:2 NIV).

My Father, hear my prayer,Before I go to rest;It is Your trustful little childThat comes now to be blessed.

Forgive me all my sin,And let me sleep this nightIn safety and in peaceUntil the morning light.

E.C.W., in Horder’s Book of Praise for Children, 1875, adapted

“In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety” (Psalm 4:8 NIV).
