Lyrics Shelter of Your Arms - Willie Nelson

Now I lay me down to sleep
And if I sleep, perhaps I′ll dream
If I dream, I'll be with you
In the shelter of your arms

I pray that god will lengthen night
And grant me time before the light
For the light of day will take me
From the shelter of your arms

And though I know it′s just a dream
A dream that soon must end
The arms I feel, I know are real
And I'm happy, once again

And if I die, while I am asleep
I pray my dreams he'll let me keep
And carry me through eternity
In the shelter of your arms

And though I know it′s just a dream
A dream that soon must end
The arms I feel, I know are real
And I′m happy, once again

And if I die while I am asleep
I pray my dreams he'll let me keep
And carry me through eternity
In the shelter of your arms
