Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep
Author: Emma C. Willard Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5832 Refrain First Line: And calm and peaceful is my sleep Lyrics: 1. 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.
Refrain
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.
2. 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. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Rocked in the cradle of the deep]
