Common Praise ‎#436

436. Glory, love, and praise, and honour

1 Glory, love and praise, and honour
for our food,
now bestowed,
render we the Donor.
Bounteous God, we now confess thee;
God, who thus
blessest us,
meet it is to bless thee.

2 Thankful for our every blessing,
let us sing
Christ the Spring,
never, never ceasing.
Source of all our gifts and graces
Christ we own;
Christ alone
calls for all our praises.

3 He dispels our sin and sadness,
life imparts,
cheers our hearts,
fills with food and gladness.
Who himself for all hath given,
us he feeds,
us he leads
to a feast in heaven.
