- (continued from previous page)There are four corners on my bed
There are four Angels overspread my head
Martha, Mark, Luke, and John
God bless this bed that I lie on.
Oh most mercyful Jesus
Have mercy on me
There were five bleeding, and wounded
Nailed to a tree
Oh most merciful Jesus
Have mercy on me
May my soul and my body
Risigne unto thee. Amen.
Here as I lie down to sleep
I give my soul to God to keep
Martha, Mark Luke, and John
God bless this bed that that I lie on.
Oh Mary Queen of Heaven
In thy garden bright and fair
May I come to gather roses
For they Heavenly home up there
And I should pluck the wrong one
May you guide me to the right
And never may I escape from out of You sight.
