    May the Sacred Heart of Jesus be everywhere known and loved.
    Jesus meek and humble of heart make my heart like unto thine.
    As I lay down this night to sleep, my God ly down with me. The cross of the nine white Angels from the top of my head to the soles of my feet May I not ly down with evil and may evil not ly down with me
    As I lay down my head to sleep, I leave my soul to God to keep and if I die before I wake, O leave my soul to God to keep.
    As I look up as I look down, As I look over the heavenly crown. I see the blessed Virgin Mary. Seven mass books in her hand. Seven priests singing and seven bells ringing.
