Let me sink down
Let me fall asleep
Let me close my eyes
Let me shut out the world
Let me cover my eyes
Hold me tight in my sleep
Hide me from my wants and needs
Hover over my slumber
Let my shoulders relax
Keep me warm and fed
Carry me with you
Caress me with dreams and defeats
Let me give up now
Let me go home now
Let me sleep
Let me go
Allow me a moment of rest
A night of sleep
A night of forgiveness
A night of retreat
Tomorrow, my God,
I will rise again
I will shoulder my burdens
I will race towards You
For now, my God,
I will rest within myself
I will rest under Your wings
I will rest under Your feet
Hashkiveinu, my God,
Let me sleep.
