Cursillo Grace

We have had a few requests for this and thought it would be nice to post it here for everyone to use. Remember that this is to the tune of Edelweiss.

Blessing Before Meals

Bless our friends, bless our food.
Come O Lord and sit with us.
May our talk, glow with peace.
Bring your love to surround us.
Friendship and peace, may it bloom
And grow, bloom and grow forever,
Bless our friends, bless our food,
Bless our dear land forever.

Thanks After Meals

Hear our thanks, Father God,
Thanks, O Son, for being with us.
Thanks for words, giving peace,
Urging love strong sincere.
Friendship and peace let it bloom
And grow, bloom and grow forever.
Thanks for friends, thanks for food,
Thanks for freedom, Dear Father.
