Why do you weep?
I am falling asleep,
And Jesus my Shepherd,
Is watching his sheep;
His arm is beneath me,
His eye is above;
His Spirit within me
Says, “Rest in my love:
With blood I have bought thee,
And wash'd thee from sin;
With care I have brought thee
My fold to be in;
Refresh'd by still waters,
In green pastures fed,
Thy day has gone by —
I am making thy bed.”
