Evening

An evening prayer

A short prayer to lay the day down before God and rest in his keeping as night falls.

Psalm 4:8Psalm 121:3-4

Lord, the day is ending, and I bring it to you, all that was done and left undone, its joys and its weight.

For what was good, I give you thanks. For where I failed, I ask your mercy. For the people on my heart tonight, I ask your care.

Quiet the noise that follows me into the dark. You who watch over me neither slumber nor sleep, so I can lie down in peace and rest, for you alone make me dwell in safety.

Into your hands I commend this night.

Amen.

Pray it with Sellah

Sellah can read this aloud in a calm voice and gently invite you back to prayer at the times you choose.
