You know how sometimes you make resolutions to pray more? Then you actually are finally able to sit yourself down to pray... only to end up falling asleep. Well, that’s happened to me quite a bit. And honestly I would get a bit frustrated with myself and have all sorts of guilty feelings. I mean, how dare I doze off in the presence of Almighty God, right?
But recently I came across this thought: What father wouldn’t love to have his child fall asleep in his arms? It’s exactly the kind of thing that fathers live for. Could it be possible that God, as our Father, feels the same way about us at times when we do doze off in His presence? I later wrote this lullaby, with the thought that maybe this is what God sings to us when we sleep.
A little disclaimer: I don’t normally put out my songs at such a raw stage, not for public listening at least. But I guess I’m letting this out way before its time because maybe some of us need a new visual on what God feels about us (at least what I think he feels). So what you’ll hear is really just a draft that allows me to file and not forget. But just the same, I hope its lyrics speak to all of us.
