  1. Prayer

    Share Share Post
    Here I lay myself down to sleep and give my soul to God to keep.
    If anything happens me Blessed Lady waken me.
    There are four corners on my bed there are four angels over my head.
    St. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John God bless the bed that I lie on.
    Five bleeding wounds have been nailed to a tree.
    Oh merciful Jesus have mercy on me.
