Our Father in heaven,
loving Parent and Creator,
tender Mother,
we ask that you give us tomorrow's bread today,
that we may lay down to rest in peace
and rise in strength and hope to do your holy work.
Help us to remember and help those who are hungry
each time we ourselves give thanks at table.
Bless the farmers with a bountiful harvest
and bless them and for their love and care of the earth.
Grant that all who produce our food
do so safely, sustainably and humanely.
You sustain us with abundant grace:
make us hunger for that bread that gives eternal life.
Bring us together at your table
for that heavenly banquet which unites all in your kingdom.
May we be strengthened and renewed
in communion with You and each other,
and inspired to spread your Love into the world.
Watch over those whose needs we now remember,
especially those we now name.
Amen.
