Tonight I Give My Thoughts to You

Tonight I lay and give my prayers to You
And I rest my head, and know my heart is true.
Oh, LORD, You my soul shall long to sleep
To suffer nothing in thy great and heavenly deep.

For great eternal joys and pleasures keep
My soul, for Your good name I seek.
All my thoughts and worries are to You LORD
As the enemy surrounds me with his curse.

LORD, great eyes I have on your delight
Which I shall rest surely sweet at night.
For the pestilence that stalks my home, it's sure,
Shall by Thy blessing be reversed

And come not near my House or Home
And Thy Good Name shall be through me made known
When you deliver this son of Yours from hell
And upon my bed, my heart shall by Your joys be swelled.

For great is Your mercy and Your peace
Which to my eyes, is made ever so unique
In a blessing of righteous heart in song...
Thy Law, my LORD, is my everlasting Psalm.

For good and evil make their strong, long wars
And You my LORD, are there to prevent the curse;
Which my heart longs for You through the night.
So I lie to sleep, and let You send my foes to flight.
