Prayer Going to Bed
As I lie down on my right side,
I pray to God to be my guide.
If any evil comes to me,
that I might have my eyes to see.
and my right hand to bless me.
There are four corners on my bed,
four blessed angels on thy(em) spread.
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
God bless this bed that I lie on.
If I should die before I wake,
Lord God my soul to take,
Lord have mercy on us,
Christ have mercy on us.
Amen
