Lord Jesus Christ,
you are the gentle moon and joyful stars,
and watch over the darkest night.
You are the source of all peace,
reconciling the whole universe to the Father.
You are the source of all rest,
calming troubled hearts,
and bringing sleep to weary bodies.
You are the sweetness that fills our mind with quiet joy,
and can turn the worst nightmares into dreams of heaven.
May I dream of your sweetness,
rest in your arms,
be at one with your Father,
and be comforted in the knowledge
that you always watch over me.
Desiderius Erasmus (1469-1536)

That is very beautiful and as Mike says- one to keep.
I cannot wait for this book! And I send many prayers as you work on that and so much more.
A very soothing and faith-filled prayer...and timeless too. Thank you
