Now I lay me down to sleep, and if I sleep, perhaps I'll dream, and if I dream, I'll bewith you in the shelter of your arms. I pray that God will lift the night and grant metime before the light, for the light of day will take me from the shelter of your arms.And though I know it's just a dream, a dream that soon must end, the arms I feel I know are real,and I'm happy once again. And if I die while I'm asleep, I pray my dreams He'll let me keepand carry me through eternity in the shelter of your arms.And though I know it's just a dream, a dream that soon must end, the arms I feel I know are real,and I'm happy once again.
