Prayer for Sleep and a Peaceful Night

A peaceful Christian bedtime prayer for sleep, calm thoughts, protection and rest through the night.

A Prayer for Sleep

Heavenly Father, as this day ends, help my body and mind become still. I release unfinished tasks, difficult conversations and tomorrow’s concerns into Your care. Give me the rest I need.

A Quiet Bedtime Practice

You might read a short Psalm, name three things you are grateful for, pray for the people on your heart and then allow the day to end. Psalm 4:8 is a short verse many Christians use before sleep because it speaks of lying down in peace.

A Short Night Prayer

Lord, watch over this home tonight. Calm my thoughts, renew my strength and let me wake ready for a new day. Amen.
