Rock'd in the cradle of the deep
I lay me down in peace to sleep
Secure, I rest upon the wave
For though Oh! Lord, hast power to save
I know tho wilt not sight my call
For thou dost mark the sparrow's fall!
And calm and peaceful is my sleep
Rock'd in the cradle of the deep
And calm and peaceful is my sleep
Rock'd in the cradle of the deep

And such the trust that still were mine
Tho' stormy winds swept o'er the brine
Or tho' the tempest's fiery breath
Rous'd me from sleep to wreck and death!
In ocean cave still safe with Thee
The germ of immortality
And calm and peaceful is my sleep
Rock'd in the cradle of the deep
And calm and peaceful is my sleep
Rock'd in the cradle of the deep
