  1. In the morning when you begin work say
    All for the, O Lord: O My Jesus, all for thee.
    When inclined to anger say
    O, My Juses give me patience. My Mother Mary, restrain my tongue.
    When after getting into bed say the following little Prayer.
    Saints Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
    God Bless the bed that I lie on.
    I have a loving Saviour,
    And he is good and mild,
    He loves me very dearly,
    And I am His little child.
    He lives above in Heaven,
    While I am here below,
    And when He calls me to Him,
    I shall gladly go.
    He made my tender father,
    He made my mother dear,
    And gave me to their keeping,
    To guard me while I am here.
    So I shall love my Saviour,
