Verses to Pray as You Prepare to Sleep
I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone,
O Lord, make me dwell in safety. I will not fear the
terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day...
He will cover me with His feathers, and under His wings
I will find refuge...He will not let my foot slip - He
who watches over me will not slumber nor sleep. The Lord
watches over me - The Lord is my shade at my right hand.
I long to dwell in Your tent forever and take refuge in the
shelter of your wings...The darkness will not be dark to me,
the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light
to You. He who did not spare His own Son, but gave Him up
for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, graciously
give us all things? I am of Christ, and Christ is of God.
I will trust and not be afraid.
