Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John,
bless the bed
that I lie on.
Before I lay me down to sleep,
I give my
soul to Christ to keep.
Four corners to my bed,
four angels there
aspread,
two to foot, and two to head,
and two to carry
me when I'm dead.
I go by sea, I go by land,
the Lord made me
by his right hand.
If any danger comes to me,
Sweet
Jesus Christ, deliver me.
He's the branch, and I'm the
flower,
pray God send me a happy hour.
And if I die
before I wake,
I pray that Christ my soul will
take.
