Bless This Mess
Lord,
bless this mess
of a meal I've made,
before the guests arrive.
I hope I have hidden
the burnt cornbread
discretely enough
with the o.k. slices.
Where I've added
too much salt,
let me have
watered it down enough
so others won't notice.
And please,
please Lord,
if You really want to be
merciful to me tonight,
just let my guests
call for a rain check.
Amen

Cheers
Thank you God

We hope all pot lucks
are palatable
and all false teeth
are secure and able.
Smile upon us oh Lord.
Keep all blood
pressures stable.
Let us enjoy
our meals,
yet not linger too long.
Bless each cook
for preparing some
needed specialized foods.
Show extra special favor
Jehovah to them
for checking the
nutrition labels,
to ease bodies and minds.

our glasses
and cheers to God
one more time.

Choices
Gracious Lord,
we have now taken
the pork off the table.
We have now made
the gluten free.
We have now
emptied the sugar
from the sugar bowl.
We have now
thrown the salt
back into the sea.
We have now
commandeered MSG.
We have now
deseeded the grape,
which is such a good
gift from Thee.
God we ask You,
to enrich the nutrients
in each portion that we see.
Let us not miss
what is not missing.
Nourish our bodies
and minds.
Let us remember
the cooks and preparers
and thank them again
one more time.
Amen.

Filling Station
Oh Lord,
thank You for those who
are seated here.
We will never say,
we don't have enough
food to eat,
for You are our filling station.
Just remind us not to siphon
food from this meal
like some others
and hoard the leftovers.
Let us share
with a needy family.
Let us pray for those
who are hungry
throughout the nation.
Amen.

Hard Work
O powerful Father,
work your magic here.
Bless all
who have dared
to come together
to enjoy my first
royal feast.
If some dish
doesn't taste quite right,
let each guest
just rename it
as i do,
to respect the cooks
hard work at least.
Amen.

Snubbing
Let us stand
around our table
to praise God
for this meal.
God bless all
who have come
to fellowship together.
Let us not praise
our loved ones cuisines
much louder.
No shouting excitedly
how delicious it is.
No ignoring or snubbing
other delicious dishes
from an unknown neighbor.
Let us give
all the glory to God
and compliment all the cooks.
God bless all
who were able
and willing to
prepare this food.
God bless
each and every bite.
Amen.

Twice Baked Potatoes
Gracious Lord,
I followed the recipe
I cooked it twice.
Twice baked potatoes
with loaded vegetables
sure sounded nice.
I sampled the finished product.
The seasonings divine..
It tasted so delicious.
I baked it a third time.
I hope all my guest
sitting here loves it.
Bless this food
for us all Lord.
Amen.

Wild Game
To your name God
be the glory.
The Lord He is good
all the time.
Just look
at what He has done.
Thank God
for all of you
who have come.
Bless the hunters in this place.
If it were not for them
this wild game dinner
could not have been.
The buffet table is full
of new and unusual
selections: wild rabbit,
hogs head, wild turkey,
venison, pheasant,
turtle, wild duck and more.
Bison burgers
at the kids buffet table.
Sorry no kangaroo.
God bless it all.
Let's eat,
where the deer
and the antelope lay.
Amen.
