  2. As I lay down myself to sleep,
    I give my soul to God to keep,
    If anything happen me Blessed Lady waken me,
    Matthew, Mark, Luke and John,
    God bless this bed that I lie on,
    There are four corners on my bed,
    And four angels over-head
    If I die before I wake,
    God Almighty my soul to take,
