For they were broken by a nail
But only they reach Heaven at last
Who those frail broken hands hold fast.
- 1. God bless, God bless the mark of John
God bless, God bless the bed I lie on
There are four corners on my bed
There are four angels round me spread
Two at my feet, one at my head
Ad one to guard my soul to take
And if I die before I wake
I give my soul to God to take.2. It was on Good Friday Our Saviour died
It was on Good Friday he was crucified
The Jews came in with spears so sharp
And stuck Our Saviour in the heart
From the heart to the hands
The blood from His flesh began to flow
His blessedMother standing by
And Jesus condemned to die
