God Sings Your Lullaby

Proverbs 3:24English Standard Version (ESV)

24 If you lie down, you will not be afraid;

    when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.

Psalm 4:8English Standard Version (ESV)

8 In peace I will both lie down and sleep;

    for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.

Psalm 127:2English Standard Version (ESV)

2 It is in vain that you rise up early

    and go late to rest,

eating the bread of anxious toil;

    for he gives to his beloved sleep.

Psalm 42:8New International Version (NIV)

8 By day the Lord directs his love,

    at night his song is with me—

    a prayer to the God of my life.

I think drawn to lullabies, because sleep is often elusive.  Pain will disrupt it so that I can't recall the last time I slept like a baby.  My God, who never sleeps, keeps watch over my nights, and I am thankful for his presence.  Sleep well, beloved of God, He gives you a song in the night.
