Table Prayer

In the US before we eat we will usually say grace. Thank the Lord for the day, food, etc. There is usually one person who prays for the blessing.

In Norway they have prayers that are in songs. This is the one we have prayed the most while we’ve been here. Below are the words:

A. du som metter liten fugl,
velsign var mat, a Gud.
Amen.

Translated to English is:

O Thou who feeds the little bird,
bless our food, o Lord.
Amen.

I thought that this was really cool and wanted to share it.

    Amy, I have enjoyed reading your blog…but I must say it has only proved to make me completely jealous that you are there and I’m not! The table prayer sent me over the top….too many fun memories! Glad you two are having a great time!
