Actually, that may not be a good idea. A good number of Psalms would scare them more than that. He should do Genesis One or the like.

Here’s an extended version: Now I lay me down to sleep.I pray the Lord my soul to keep.If I should die before I wake,I pray to God my soul to take.If I should live for other days,I pray the Lord to guide my ways.
Father, unto thee I pray,Thou hast guarded me all day;Safe I am while in thy sight,Safely let me sleep tonight.Bless my friends, the whole world bless;Help me to learn helpfulness;Keep me every in thy sight;So to all I say good night.

This is the version I learned: 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.
