  1. (continued from previous page)
    my head
    Saint Matthew Mark Luke and John
    God bless the bed that I lie on
    And if I die before I wake
    I pray to God my soul shall take.
    3
    Jesus the branch and Mary the flower
    Jesus Mary and Joseph be with me at my dying hour.
    4
    Oh my god I know I must die
    I do not know when how nor where
    But if I die in mortal sin I am lost forever.
    5
    Infant Jesus meek and mild
    Pity me a little child.
    6
    Oh immense passion
    Oh profound wounds
    Oh profusion of blood
    Oh sweetness above all sweetness.
    Oh most bitter death
    Grant my soul eternal rest. Amen
    7
    Sweet heart of Jesus I adore
    Sweet heart of Mary I implore
    Sweet heart of Joseph true and just
    In those three hearts I place my trust. Amen
