  1. Traditional Prayers - Another Prayer on Going to Bed

    Share Share Post
    (e) Another prayer on going to bed.
    There are four corners on my bed
    There are four angels on them spread
    Mathew, Mark, Luke and John.
    God bless this bed that I lie on
    God bless it in.
    God bless it out.
    God bless all around about this house
    And if I die before I sleep
    I pray to God my soul to keep.
    And if I die before I wake
    I give my soul t o God to take.
