A Prayer for Restful Sleep

Dear God, as I lay down to rest this night,

I thank you with all my heart for walking with me through another day.

All my successes, my triumphs, my victories I offer in your name and mercy.

I lift up to you all my worries, fears and anxieties, I know that you will grant me the grace to see them through.

As my eyes grow heavy and I drift into restful slumber,

I take comfort in knowing that I am safe, loved and held in your warm embrace.

Calm my mind and expand my faith in you O’ Lord.

Restore my strength throughout the night, that I may make full use of tomorrow to glorify your name.

Guard me in my sleep and guide me when the morning comes.

Your humble servant
