The Christian's Goodnight by Sarah Doudney (1912) & Sarah Lambrecht (1998)
Sleep on beloved, sleep, and take thy rest.
Lay down thy head upon thy Savior’s breast;
We loved thee well, but Jesus loves thee best. Goodnight.
Calm is thy slumber as an infant’s sleep,
But thou shalt wake no more to toil and weep.
Thine is a perfect rest secure and deep. Goodnight.
Until made beautiful by love divine,
Thou in the likeness of the Lord shalt shine.
And He shall bring that golden crown of thine.
Until we meet again before His throne.
Clothed in the spotless robe He gives His own.
Until we know, even as we are known. Goodnight.
Sleep on beloved, sleep, and take thy rest.
Lay down thy head upon thy Savior’s breast,
We loved thee well, but Jesus loves thee best. Goodnight.
