Now I lay me down to sleep,
please oh Lord my soul don't keep.
Let it drift throughout my mind.
Hidden secrets let it find.
Let it venture further on
and pass the time with those long gone.
Let it look through wardrobe doors
And spend an age on foreign shores.
Let it live in pages last
seen before the dream was cast.
Let it for a moment be
a spirit in the wild, free.
No my Lord my soul don't keep,
Let it leave me in my sleep.
And while I wander without fear
please keep this vessel safely here.
