A PRAYER…AT DAYS END

Now I lay me down to sleep

I pray the Lord my soul to keep

Another day has come and gone

You’ve been beside me all day long

And now it’s time to rest my head

I thank you Lord for this warm bed

Through out the day, I’ve faced some trails

And because of You, I still can smile

I know You’re there to see me through

And when I need help, I can lean on You

I thank You Lord for supplying my needs

I thank You Lord on my bended knees

I thank You for the chance to witness to others

For I know in You, we’re all sisters and brothers

I thank You Lord for Your Son, Christ Jesus

I know His shed blood is what has freed us

And now it has come to the end of the day

A time when I stop and give thanks and pray

I thank You for keeping me safe and sound

I thank You that Your love and mercy abounds

Before I close my eyes and sleep

I pray dear Lord for your lost sheep

I pray for those who have gone astray

Please touch their hearts and minds this day

So now I close my eyes and sleep

Knowing dear Lord  my soul You’ll keep

AMEN.
