SA 63:6{Memory is never so busy as in the quiet time while we are waiting for sleep; and never, perhaps, are we more tempted to useless recollections and idle reveries than in the night watches. Perhaps we have regretfully struggled against them; perhaps yielded to effortless indulgence in them and thought we could not help it and were hardly responsible for vain thoughts at such times. But here is full help and bright hope. This night let us "remember Thee." We can only remember what we already know. Oh, praise Him, then, that we have material for memory! There is enough for all the wakeful nights of a lifetime in the one word "Thee." It leads us straight to "His own self." Dwelling on that one word "Thee," faith, hope, and love wake up, and feed, and grow.
His Spirit shines upon His Word, and makes it sweet indeed,
Just like a shining lamp held up beside me as I read;
And brings it to my mind again alone upon my bed,
Till all abroad within my heart the love of God is shed.
