- (continued from previous page)"There are four corners on my bed
And four angels round my head,
One to guard me, one to pray,
And two to bear my soul away.""Thanks be to God for the storm and the sunshine
Thanks be to God for the hail and the snow
Thanks be to God when our pockets are empty
Thanks be to God when they overflow"."May God increase your stone"
"God bless the hearers and where 'tis told."
"The Lord between us and all harm."
"God bless the mark." "God bless the work" "od bless all here." "May God spare you the health." "That you may never be so long sick or sore" said to one who lends a hand in time of great hurry and need.
"That we may be all alive and happy this time twelvemonths" said when eating new potatoes or at Xmas dinner.
