Round your table, through your giving,
show us how to live and pray
till your Kingdom's way of living
is the bread we share each day.
bread for us and for our neighbour,
bread for body, mind and soul,
bread of heaven and human labour –
broken bread that makes us whole.
Dean Ramsey tells of the parish minister of Stonehaven giving thanks for the safe ingathering of harvest, "except for a few stooks between here and Bervie". Clearly it's good to be precise with the Almighty and the extent of blessing received, not to limit gratitude, but to earth praise.
