Psalm 4 — In Peace I Will Lie Down and Sleep
Night often arrives before the mind is ready.
Thoughts linger, conversations replay, the body is tired, but rest feels just out of reach.
In this episode of As You Lie Down, Psalm 4 is read slowly and without commentary, allowing Scripture to become the final voice of the day. The psalm names both distress and trust — ending with a quiet declaration of safety and peace as the night deepens.
There is nothing to study, analyze, or complete here. This reading is offered simply, as a place to rest.
Whether you remain awake or fall asleep while listening, the Word has already been spoken and nothing is lost.
