- These are some old prayers. This is one which is said in the morning. "O Jesus in the blessed sacrament of the holy alter we offer thee the prayers, works and sufferings of this day. We offer them to thee for the intentions of thy divine heart and especially for greater devotion to our guardian angel and to those that are dying without the last sacrament and for the Pope's intentions. This is another prayer which is said after the rosary. "Heart of Jesus we adore thee, Heart of Mary we implore thee, Heart of Joseph pure and trust in those three heart we place our trust. There is another prayer which is said when going to bed. "I lay my body down to sleep, I give to God my soul to keep and if I die before I wake, I pray to God my soul to take. There are four corners on my bed. There are four angels on this spread. Mathew, Mark, Luke and John. God bless this bed that I lie on.
