- Here I lay myself down to sleep,
My soul to God I give to keep
My God within, my God without,
My God in heaven all round about,
Anything that happens me,
My Sweet Saviour will save me.Crucified Jesus have pity on me
My soul and my body I give unto Thee,
In honour of the five bleeding wounds that were nailed to a tree,
Crucified Jesus have pity on me.
