Bedtime Hashkivenu

Now I lay me down to sleep
In peace, Eternal One.
In the morning, I will rise
To life renewed, in sun.
Spread over me the shelter of
Your peace, and set me right.
Shield me, guard me, clear my way
Throughout this lonely night.
Shelter me beneath your wings
As you fly close above.
Safeguard me as I come and go
In life, and peace, and love.
