Into your hands I commit my spirit is the prayer Jesus chose for the worst moment in history, borrowed from this psalm. It works for 2am worry too. A prayer for placing what you can't control into hands that don't drop things.
Into your hands I commit my spirit; deliver me, Lord, my faithful God. Psalm 31:5 (NIV)
The prayer
Lord, into Your hands I commit my spirit. You are my faithful God. Deliver me from the trap that is set for me, for You are my refuge.
