    Prayers
    Here as I lay down to sleep
    To God I give my soul to keep.
    And if I die before I wake,
    I pray to God my soul to take.
    There are four corners on my bed,
    There are four angels on them spread,
    St. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John,
    God bless the bed that I lay on
