Weary now, I lay me down

Weary now, I lay me down,

softly close my tired eyes.

Father, keep watch o'er my bed,

and protect me while I sleep.

For all that I did wrong today,

I do for your forgiveness pray.

For your mercy and the Blood

of Jesus Christ makes badness good.

Please watch o'er those whom I love,

protect them both by night and day.

Large and small and young and old,

take them to Your loving Heart.

Comfort all the sick and ill,

close the eyes of those who weep.

Fill the night with moonlight clear,

shining o'er the quiet earth.
