Now I lay me down to sleep
I’ll assume I’ll rise rested and at peace.
For I know all day I tried my best
To treat all others with respect.
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord, my soul to keep;
Angels watch me through the night
and keep me in their blessed sight.
Amen
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord, my soul, to keep;
If I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord, my soul, to take.
If I should live another day
I pray the Lord to guide my way
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord, my soul, to keep;
If I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord, my soul, to take.
There are four corners on my bed,
There are four angels overhead,
Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John,
God bless this bed that I lay on
I’ll thank you once again because it’s true
That you bless me.
