Christ in Song 573
HE GIVETH HIS BELOVED SLEEP
1"For so he giveth his beloved sleep." - Ps. 127:2.
"He giveth his beloved sleep." Blessed words of wondrous truth, which tell
The sin of weariness and fret, Without them may we doubt; they bring sweet op-por-tuni-ty soul, Je-sus has one cry: sleep!
That sickness summons, disease sends, like sweet-est songs shall mark-ed rest sleep-ing.
RefrainREFRAIN:
O sooth-ing words, so off for-get; He giveth his be-lov-ed sleep, He giveth his be-lov-ed sleep.
