My heart is beating quiet in the dark,
Sleepless, I talk to my God,
Tell him all about my woes.
Thank him for his tender mercies,
And the love he gives each day.
What a wonder and delight he is,
And a joy to my very world.
And in the dark silences...
I know that My Father is listening,
Intently to his child,
He cradles me in his arms,
Until I fall asleep.

This was quite inspirational. I'm not a religious person, but this really touched me. It contained a sincerity that anyone can relate to, despite religious beliefs. Thanks for entering.
