<p>Rocked in the cradle of the deep,<br>
I lay me down in peace to sleep;<br>
Secure I rest upon the wave,<br>
For Thou, O Lord, hast power to save.<br>
I know Thou wilt not slight my call,<br>
For Thou dost mark the sparrow&#8217;s fall.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">And calm and peaceful is my sleep,<br>
Rocked in the cradle of the deep;<br>
And calm and peaceful is my sleep,<br>
Rocked in the cradle of the deep.</p>
<p>And such the trust that still were mine,<br>
Though stormy winds sweep over the brine,<br>
Or though the tempest&#8217;s fiery breath<br>
Rouse me from sleep to wreck and death,<br>
In ocean cave still safe with Thee,<br>
The germ of immortality.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
