We thank Thee, dear Son, that Thou hast again opened Thy bountiful hand
to supply our wants; grant that we may receive this food with
thanksgiving and gratitude and in Thy fear, and grant, O Lord! that
whatsoever we do, whether we eat or drink, all may be done to Thy name's
honor and glory, through Jesus Christ, our Saviour. Amen.
O Lord God, heavenly Father, bless unto us these Thy gifts, which of Thy
tender kindness Thou hast bestowed upon us, through Jesus Christ, our
Lord. Amen.
Prayers after Meat.
O give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy endureth
forever. He giveth food to all flesh. His mercies are new unto us every
morning, for his faithfulness eudureth unto all generations. Amen.
We give thanks to Thee, O God our Father, for all Thy benefits, through
Jesus Christ our Lord, who with Thee liveth and reigneth forever and
ever. Amen.
We return thanks unto Thee, O Lord! that Thou hast again vouchsafed to
feed these perishable bodies, and we beseech Thee, that Thou wouldst also
feed our souls with the bread of eternal life. Amen.
