  1. As I lie down to take my sleep
    I give my soul to God to keep
    And if I die before a week
    I hope my soul He still will keep.
    God the Father bless me
    Jesus Christ defend and keep me
    The virtue of the Holy Ghost
    enlighten me
    This night & forever. Amen
    O my God I have to die. I do not know when, where or how but if I die in mortal sin I'm lost for ever. My sweetest Jesus have mercy on me and on all those who are in agony this night.
    When Jesus Christ saw the cross on which He was to be crucified
