Online Coptic Prayer Book

Prayer after Meals

 

We thank you O Lord, God the Almighty, for this dining table, which is a proof of your love for all of us your servants, who gained from the good of the earth..

We ask you our Master, bless what is left from us, as the blessing of the five loaves and the two fish..  which fed many gathering in the wilderness..

Be our help and strength, we who receive it & those who showed their mercy to us, those who served us, and those who ate with us..

Grant then O Lord your rewards of salvation..  And compensate them for their hard work..

For Your Holy Name is blessed and full of grace, O Father, Son and the Holy Spirit, now and forever until eternity. Amen
