Rocked in the cradle of the deep,
I lay me down in peace to sleep;
Secure I rest upon the wave,
For Thou, O Lord,
hast power to save.
I know Thou wilt not
slight my call,
For Thou dost mark
the sparrow’s fall.
And calm and peaceful is my sleep,
Rocked in the cradle of the deep;
And calm and peaceful is my sleep,
Rocked in the cradle of the deep.
And such the trust
that still were mine,
Though stormy winds
sweep o’er the brine,
Or though the tempest’s fiery breath
Rouse me from sleep
to wreck and death,
In ocean cave still safe with Thee,
The germ of immortality.
And calm and peaceful is my sleep,
Rocked in the cradle of the deep;
And calm and peaceful is my sleep,
Rocked in the cradle of the deep.
