A Good Night by Frances Quarles (excerpt)


Close now thine eyes and rest secure;
Thy soul is safe enough, thy body sure;
He that loves thee, He that keeps
And guards thee, never slumbers, never sleeps.

"I will lay me down in peace and take my rest for it is Thou Lord only who makest me dwell in safety."


St. Theresa of Avila (I think)
"It is well, It is well, and all manner of things will be well."
