Fall Asleep to the Psalms | Psalm 23 & Bible Verses of Peace with Gentle Rain

Tonight, rest in the oldest bedtime prayers ever written. Ninety peaceful minutes of the Psalms, read slowly from the King James Version over soft, gentle rain, the distant wash of ocean waves, and a whisper-quiet piano. No sudden noises, no music swells, no interruptions in tone - just the words that have carried people to sleep for three thousand years, with long quiet pauses in between, so you can drift off at any moment. "I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety." - Psalm 4:8 Twelve gentle themes carry you through the night: the verses for falling asleep, the shepherd's psalm, the One who never slumbers, the shadow of His wings, be still and know, the moon and the stars, bless the LORD O my soul, searched and known, waiting for the morning, the LORD is my light, quiet trust, and a final blessing for the night. The reading gently returns through the night - if you wake, the words will still be there.
