~ In The Night Watches ~

O' Lord I can't seem to sleep
I just toss and turn
Rest escapes me this night
O' for rest, my body does yearn

Lord if it's something I must do
Or a weary soul to pray for
Lord would you bring it to mind
I'll willingly do this and more

For if I'm to be a worker for you
I must take the night watches too
And not let one soul slip away
Without calling their name out to you

I need to live much closer to Thee
And if my rest for this body I lose
There'll be rest at the end of the way
So Jesus it's your will I choose
