A Night Night Prayer

Thomas Nelson

Shh, it's time for sleeping, For snuggling in so tight. But first I say my night night prayer, And to God's world, "Good night."

Shh, the sun is sleeping. It's resting in the clouds. When the morning comes again, It will shine so bright and proud.

Night night, sun.

Shh, the birds are sleeping, So cozy in their nest. Once they rest their sleepy beaks, Their songs will sound the best.

Night night, birds.

Shh, the trees are sleeping. They're swaying in the wind. After a long and quiet night, They'll wake and stretch and bend.

Night night, trees.

Shh, the flowers are sleeping. They're soaking in the dew. When the morning shines on them, They'll sparkle good as new.

Night night, flowers.

Shh, the puppy's sleeping, A toy under his chin. When he rouses from his sleep, We'll play hide-and-seek again.

Night night, puppy.

Shh, kittens are sleeping. They're cuddling Mom so tight. They'll have sweet dreams of mice and milk Until the morning light.

Night night, kittens.

Shh, my mommy's sleeping. She's tucked us all in bed. But at the sun's first ray of light, She'll yawn and raise her head.

Night night, Mommy.

Shh, my daddy's sleeping. I giggle as he snores. And when tomorrow comes for us, We'll laugh and play some more!

Night night, Daddy.

God, thank You for the trees, the birds, The sun that shines above. And thank You most of all, dear God, For watching us with love.

Night night, God.
