  2. A Prayer

    Share Share Post
    Here I lay me down to sleep
    To God I give my soul to keep
    And if I die before I wake
    I pray to God 'tis into Heaven my soul he'll take
    There are four corners on my bed
    There are four angels overhead
    Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John
    God bless this bed I lay on
