This is a prayer my mom taught me to say (the first verse) every evening, where I have added a melody so I can sing it to my kids as a lullaby. It works well - in some cases, when my kid's been in night terrors or anxiousness this song has helped calm them down fast. I'm sure it helps that I'm singing it with intention, feeling the words be a reality as I sing them.
Songs=Prayers=Spells.
Over the years, I changed some of the words from my mom's original prayer to make it align more with my way of believing (like from Jesus to Love because it's easier for me to connect to the energy of Love than a guy I didn't meet, though I suppose it's possible to meet Jesus in the spiritual realms? Still, I feel love is the energy behind/beyond it all anyway so in singing about calling in love it's like going directly to the source code instead of the messenger).

Original Finnish lyrics
----------------------
Tule rakkaus lapses luo
Armos siunauksesi suo
Tue pientä mahtavaa
Johda tietä oikeaa
Aamen kiitos
Näin se on
Aamen kiitos
Tehty on
Tule rakkaus ja ole lapses kaa
Suojaa unia kauneimpia
Ole rakkaus lapses kaa
Lämmitä pientä sydäntä
Aamen kiitos
Näin se on
Aamen kiitos
Tehty on

Bestow your grace and blessing
Support the little great one

Amen Thank You
And so it is
Amen Thank You
It is done
Come, love, and be with your child
Protect the most sweetest dreams
Be, love, with your child
Warm the little heart
Amen Thank you
And so it is
Amen Thank You
It is done
