THE SLEEPLESS NIGHT

I awoke in the midst of the night
and my pillow was full of tears
My heart had been troubled with a fright
but I knew that my Jesus was near

So I fell on my knees and began to pray
to the Lord for I know he hears
to give me peace while in my bed I lay
and comfort my soul and ease my tears

To take control of my mind so weary
and let me rest on this sleepless night
to protect me in this world so dreary
and to all my battles fight

Psalms 4:8

I will both lay me down in
peace, and sleep: for thou,
Lord, only makest me dwell
in safety.
