Verse 1 [a capella]
My Savior, hear my prayer, before I go to rest;
It is Your little child,
Who comes now to be blest.
Forgive me-all my sins,
And help me sleep this night
In safety and in peace,
Until the morning bright.

Chorus
Safe in Your arms, dear Jesus,
Safe on Your gentle breast.
Here no fears alarm me,
Here can my soul find rest.

Music break:

Verse 2
Guardian angels around my bed,
Standing by 'til I rise,
There's one with shining wings who holds my hand,
And shows me Paradise.
In the darkness, You speak to me,
And give me a joyous song.
Yes, there's no other place where I love to be more,
I know this is where I belong.

[Repeat Chorus]

Musical Interlude:

Ending Chorus
Safe in Your arms, dear Jesus,
Safe on Your gentle breast.
Here no fears alarm me,
Here can my soul find rest.
Safe in Your arms, dear Jesus,
Safe on Your gentle breast.
Here no fears alarm me,
Here can my soul find rest.
