When in the night I cannot sleep
And trouble crowds my mind
I long to close my eyes and rest
And leave the world behind.
I must be still and know that God
Will soothe my fretful brow,
No need to think of yesterday
But only of the now...
When God is close and holds my hand
Then sad thoughts go away
My troubles melt into the air
And darkness turns to day.
I settle close within His arms
My faith is strong and deep
Tomorrow's in His loving hands,
The night was made for sleep.
