Sweet Sleep

Hoping I will rest
Best I can in comfort arms 
Finished with life’s test

We all need sweet sleep
We, like sheep, roam and wander
Tired, so make no peep

Oh, pray fervently 
I cast my sorrows away
Wept deep inside me 

His love is endless
He grants us sweet sleep for life
Gladdens our distress

In need of wisdom
Also, I reap beauty sleep
Where’s future Kingdom?

Coping with tired eyes
Best I can in harmless light
Satisfaction cries…
