    Oh Lord God who has caused us to reach the beginning of this day save us today by Thy Power that we may turn not aside to any sin and that our thoughts, words and actions may be ruled by Thy Justice
    2. Blessed was the bed and blessed was the Flower.
    Sweet Jesus Mary and Joseph be with me now and at my dying hour.
    3. Our Saviour's Five Bleeding wounds were nailed to a Tree
    My soul and my body I give
    unto Thee.
    O merciful Jesus have mercy on me
    4. Here I lie down to take my sleep
    And if I die before I wake.
    I give my soul to God to take
    If any evil troubles me
    Oh Holy Jesus come to me
    Pity mine and pity me.
