Bless Us, O Lord – a meal prayer & so much more

Bless us, O Lord, and these thy gifts which we are about to receive from thy bounty, through Christ Our Lord. Amen
I never ‘got’ our meal prayer until this past week. It seemed so inappropriate – we weren’t thanking God or our hosts or the cook for the meal we were about to eat but instead we were asking for something more – God’s blessing.
