God,
The day is done, and I didn't get to half of it. I'm letting it go now. Forgive what I did wrong, finish what I couldn't, and hold the people I love while we sleep. I lie down tonight in Your peace, not in my worries.
In Jesus' name, Amen.

Bible verses for sleep and rest
I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.
