A Child’s Evening Prayer
Jesus, wilt Thou guard the slumber
Of a little child like me?
Wilt Thou watch in darkness o’er me,
That protected I may be?
Yes, I know that Thou wilt keep me,
So I close my weary eyes;
Trusting Thee to guard my slumber
‘Neath Thy gracious, shelt’ring skies.

A Child’s Evening Prayer
In Thine arms, O Jesus, fold me
Let me be Thy little lamb;
Close unto Thy bosom hold me,
Give me slumber deep and calm.
