  1. To be said when you lie down in bed at night.
    As I lay down my head to sleep.I give my soul to God to keep.
    Whether I rise now or never The Lord may rest my soul in heaven.
    There are four corners on the bed. There are four angles overhead Mathew Mark Luke and John.
    God bless this bed that I lie on.
