  1. Old people had very many beautiful prayers which never appeared in print.
    On awaking in the morning they say
    Jesus I offer you all I shall do, think or say today.
    Before work they say
    My God I do this because it pleases You
    Before lessons:-
    May God the Holy Ghost give me light to learn this.
    Before play:-
    Dear angel be with me that I may be safe from harm and sin
