Grace Before Meals
The traditional table blessing, from an old Latin grace. Pray it before every meal, at home or in a restaurant, to remember that every good thing is a gift.

The prayer
Bless us, O Lord, and these Thy gifts, which we are about to receive from Thy bounty, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
In Latin
Benedic, Domine, nos et haec tua dona quae de tua largitate sumus sumpturi. Per Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen.
