Praise, yes, praise is Yours, O God,
Ruler of all time and space,
Who every day invites the world
To the feast of love, goodness and compassion:
You feed us–and we earned it not;
You sustain us—and we deserved it not;
You so abundantly overwhelm us with
Your Goodness.
Food you provide for all Your creatures
Whom You love so abundantly.
And because you are so good to us,
We have never lacked sustenance in the past
And we believe that we will never lack food
In the future.
This You do for Your own repute
That You may be known as:
The one who sustains,
The One who supports,
The one who provides food for each
creature’s needs.
For Your feast is prepared for all,
And Your table is set for all;
You know well what each one needs,
For You did create all.
Therefore do we praise and. thank You,
the One who nourishes all.
