Everything that lives and moves will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.
Genesis 9:3 |
Prayer Before and After Meals
|
|
This prayer before the meals is called a blessing because it calls down God's blessing upon us and upon what we are about to eat.
Bless us, O Lord,
and these Thy gifts,
which we are about to
receive from Thy bounty,
through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
|
|
The prayer after meals is called grace. Here we thank God for
having provided for our bodily needs and for all His benefits.
We give Thee thanks for
all Thy benefits,
O almighty God who livest
and reignest forever;
and may the souls of
the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God,
rest in peace.
Amen.
