  1. (continued from previous page)
    And if I die before I wake
    To God I give my soul to take
    There are four corners on my bed
    There are four Angels on them spread
    One to guide me, one to guard me
    Two to carry my soul to Heaven
    Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
    God bless the bed that I lie on.
    Good Friday night at twelve o'clock
    The Jews came in and struck Our Saviours Heart.
    The blood was flowing from hand to hand
    Pity the Mother standing by
    Sad and dismal was her cry."
