As I Lay Down To Sleep

As I Lay Down to Sleep As I lay down and pray I think of all the good things that happened today Not a day goes by that I try to do my best I want to please the lord above all the rest Wonder if this is my last night Morning comes and I will not see the morning light Could only hope that I did all the right things Left my family in order before I see my KING We never know the place or the time Before our saviour calls us home, could be the last rhyme Guess its only human to think about death But oh well have to get some sleep, take a deep breath Written by: Debra Falgout October 2, 2012
