Bedtime blessings

I don't know where I came across these bedtime blessings for kids but I love them. You can just fill in the blank with your child's name or even your own name and pray Scripture blessings on them/you.

Thank you, God, that You are our refuge and our strength a very present help in any type of trouble. May _______ be still and know that You are God, may _______ lie down and sleep in peace for you alone, O Lord, make ___ dwell in safety. (Psalm 46: 1, 10, Psalm 4:8) 

_______, may you go to sleep tonight thinking about things that are true and honorable and lovely and worthy of praise.
