Song for before dinner

song for after dinner

Lyrics

may i remember to taste my food
may i remember to chew
may my napkin be fortuitously placed
may tonight the knife aim true

and though we are hungry let us still eat slowly
and notice each moment occur
may my napkin be fortuitously placed
may tonight, our knives aim true

and though we are tierd let us still listen
and pay attention for this is all that we have
this food, this room, and the people within it
lets remember and always give thanks
