- (continued from previous page)not sleep at night.
As I went through the Holy Land, I met the Blessed Virgin Mary. Three Mass books in her hands. Three priests singing Three bells ringing.. Three candles lighting. Open the gates of Heaven. Shut the gates of Hell. Let in those poor suffering souls at the hour of twelve o clock. The wicked Jews came with their spears and pierced the heart of our sweet Saviour dear, from hand to hand from hand to foot. May the angel's robe be about my neck down to my two soles, that I may not touch the bad, that the bad may not touch me. Sweet Jesus, pity me. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John bless the bed that I lie on. Infant Jesus, meek and mild, look on me a little child.
Heart of Jesus, I adore thee
Heart of Mary, I adore thee
Heart of Joseph, pure and just,
In those three hearts I put my trust
Jesus the branch and Mary the flower
Christ Jesus be with me at my dying hour.As I lie on my bed to sleep
I give my soul to God to keep.
Waken now or waken never
I give my soul to God forever.
