A Prayer for Sleep (When You Can't Rest)
When sleep will not come and your mind will not quiet, this is a prayer to lay the night down and rest in God's care.
Lord, my mind will not be still, and rest will not come.
Quiet my racing thoughts and unclench my hands.
I give You everything I am carrying into tomorrow.
Watch over me and mine through the night.
In peace I will lie down and sleep, for You keep me safe. Amen.
“I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.”
Psalm 4:8
You don’t have to pray alone
On The Living Bread you can ask the family of God to pray for you and watch prayers be answered, or pray for someone else who needs it today. It is free, and you are welcome exactly as you are.
