  1. (continued from previous page)
    2. Oh, Jesus, only Son of the Father
    Oh Lamb, Who didnt shed thy Hearts' Bloodto redeem us, shelter me, guard me, keep by me for ever. Whether lying or sitting, or standing or sleeping. Amen!
    A prayer to be said beginning dark work.
    3. Sprinkle me with holy water, O Loving Jesus, and wash my sins away, and make my soul as white as snow.
    A prayer to be said when going into the Church
    4. May the will of God be done by us.
    May the death of the saints be won by us,
    And the light of Thy Kingdom begun in us.
    May Jesus, The Child, be beside my bed,
    May the Lamb of Mercy uplift my head,
    And the Virgin Mother her brightness shed
    And Michael be steward of my soul
    A prayer to be said at night.
    5. In the name of The Father, for success,
    And of The Son who suffered pain.
    May Mary and her son be with me on my way.
    Oh, Mary, meet me at the shore,
    Let not my soul go by Thee,
    Great is my fear of Thy Son.
    In the Communion of Saints may we be listening to voices of the Angels, and praising The Son of god.
    World without end. Amen
