Bedtime Burdens

when at night you lay down
burdened as can be
know there’s comfort there
that you can’t always see

close your eyes
and imagine a light
beside your bed
this very night

cuz, angels come
when you least expect
your heaviest burdens
to collect

so offer them up
one by one
you’ll start to feel better
once you’ve begun

with grace they’ll carry
each worry away
so in your mind
they won’t replay

let it all go
so you can sleep 
trusting the angels
your burdens to keep
