Now I lay me down to sleep
Faced with many tears I weep
To wake up with the new day's dawn
And fast become the devil's spawn
Take me now, no soul to sell
Pass me through the gates of hell
Keep me sheltered from the light
To bid your deeds all through the night
When shall come my time to judge
From your clutch, I will not budge
Hold me deep beneath the ground
In your sea of flames I drown
Let me shed just one more tear
As the beveled sword draws ever near
So Satan, lay me down to sleep
I give you now my soul to keep
