  1. Old Prayers

    Share Share Post
    There are some prayers the old people have - God Bless Good Friday.
    Good Friday is the day our Saviour was crucified.
    The devil passing by with a spear in his hand.
    Struck Our Saviour from heart to hand,
    His flesh and blood began to flow,
    His tender mother standing by,
    With a heavy heart and could not cry
    How happy happy those will be
    Who say this prayer three times a day
    And three times a night never shall enter the fires of Hell or purgatory, Amen sweet Jesus.
