Dinner Prayers and Blessings
Here is our collection of popular dinner prayers and blessings. There is no better time to speak to God then when you’re gathered around the dinner table with the ones you love.
This first prayer is a very popular before meal blessing. It holds a special place in my heart as I remember fondly my grandfather saying it before dinner when I was a young boy.My grandpa was a hungry man, and when your hungry, a short blessing is a must!
Come Lord JesusCome Lord Jesus,
our guest to be,
and bless these gifts
bestowed by Thee. Amen. |
And here is another variation of this blessing:
Be Our GuestCome Lord Jesus, be our guest,
May this food by thee be blest,
May our souls by thee be fed,
Ever on the living Bread. Amen. |
