Home Prayers.
Here I lay down to sleep. I pray to God my soul to make. If I should die before I wake. I pray to God my soul to take.
Four corners on my bed, four angles arround me spread. Mat and Mark, Luke and John. God bless the bed that I lay on.
Amen.
Hear I lay down to sleep. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, crucified, may I a rise on the last day with the same body which we have in this life.
Amen.
O Jesus meek and humble of heart, Make my heart like unto thine.
Amen.
