Grace Before Meals
A short traditional blessing before eating
Grace before meals is a brief, ancient custom of pausing to thank God for food before eating, rooted in Christ's own example of blessing bread before meals throughout the Gospels.
Bless us, O Lord, and these Thy gifts, which we are about to receive from Thy bounty, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
