Precious, Oh, how precious,
that blessed sleep,
Folded in His bosom
Wrapped in slumber deep!
None but Jesus giveth rest
so true and sweet
For the weary body and the
way-worn feet.
Precious, Oh, how precious,
to behold his face
Ever to be with Him and to
praise His grace
Oh when Jesus giveth His
beloved sleep,
'Tis the tenderest token of His
love so deep.

The Family.
