Prayers
“There are four corners on my bed...”
When I lie down upon my right side
I pray to God to be my guide.
If I die before I wake
I pray to God my soul to take.
Four corners on my bed, four angels
On them spread.
Lady be the branch, Lord be the Flower
At my last hour.(continues on next page)- There are four corners on my bed
And on them lie four angels spread.
One to sing, one to pray and two to carry my soul away.
If I die before morning, May the heavens be my bed.- Collector
