Prayer against insomnia



Father,

As I lay down to sleep, I hold your hand.

Your hand is my comfort and my strength.

Strength to put down my concerns and fears,

Fears that steal peace, are not from you.

You are a loving Father with whom I feel safe.

Safe to rest, to let go and be at peace.

Peace is a gift, from you, and a promise.

Promises are my daily bread, so I will lay down to sleep,

Sleep within your care.

Amen.

Prayer for insomnia

Dear Lord,

Sometimes it’s so hard to sleep well.

My mind is so active, it is difficult to settle.

My body feels almost too tired to rest.

Yet I know you have created me to stop,

To switch off and be still.

So I ask for your heavenly hand to be on me tonight.

May this night be a restful one.

May I greet the morning with a restored mind, heart and body.

Tonight I hold onto your peace and trust in you.

Amen.
