  1. Old Prayers

    Night Offering
    I Here I lay me down to sleep,
    To God I give my soul to keep;
    And if I die before I wake,
    To God I give my soul to take.
    There are four corners to my bed,
    And four bright Angels over-head;
    Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John,
    God bless this bed, that I lay on.
