Simply Augustine
GOD'S GIFT OF SLEEP
"O God, the world's great architect
Clothing the day with beauteous light
And with sweet slumber silent night
When wearied limbs new vigor gain
From rest new labors to sustain;
When hearts oppressed do meet relief
And anxious minds forget their grief."
-- Freely translated from the Latin by
John Cook, 1660.
"He gives his beloved sleep." - Psalm 127:2
