  1. 1)
    There are four corners on my bed
    There are four angels overhead
    Mathew, Mark, Luke and John
    God bless the bed that I lie on.

    2)
    Here I lie down to sleep
    I give my soul to God to keep
    If I die before the morning
    That the heavens may be my bed

    3)
    Heart of Jesus I adore thee
    Heart of Mary I implore thee
    Heart of Joseph pure and just
    In these three hearts I put my trust

    4)
    Go bfuascailidh Mac Dé dhúinn
    Is go gcuididh Mac Dé dhúinn

    5)
    Jesus of Nazareth King of the Jews
    Preserve me from a sudden and unprovided death
