  1. A Prayer

    Share Share Post
    I know one prayer that we say when going to bed.
    "There are four corners on my bed,
    There are four angels over head,
    One to sing one to pray and two to carry my soul away.
    Mathew, Mark, Luke and John.
    God bless the bed that I lay on.
    And if I die before I wake I pray to God my soul to take.
