Carly Janine Mazur - Things That Go Bump

"Pray the Lord My Soul to Keep" 8"x10" oil and acrylic on board
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
If I shall die before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take. Amen.

I wasn't brought up in a religious household. I always thought it was pretty deep to drill into a child's mind that some unknown force in the middle of the night could kill them, for no reason, and that you better hope your soul be saved.

  1. You're sooooo going to hell :P

    Was wondering who'd be first to tackle this subject. You've done it justice.

  2. Thanks, Dan! I know I'd totally go to hell, but for many, many reasons... Oh well, kids can be so cruel.

  3. What a great idea. It's sad how much of a real monster this is for so many.
