Father we thank thee for the night,
And for the pleasant morning light,
For rest and food and loving care,
And all that makes the world so fair.

Help us do the things we should,
To be to others kind and good.
In all we do, the work or play,
To grow more loving every day.

Our Father in Heaven, Holy Be Your Name,
Your Kingdom come, your will be done,
On Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
And forgive us our sins as we forgive
Those who sin against us.
Do not bring us to the test but deliver us from evil.

Bless us, O God, as we sit together,
Bless the food we eat today,
Bless the hand that made the food,
Bless us, O God
-Amen. Amen

Thank you, God
For the food we have eaten,
Thank you God, for all our friends,
Thank you, God, for everything,
Thank you, God

O God! Infinite wisdom and the source of all knowledge, grant that we may remember what we have learnt. We offer you our works and our failures. Forgive us our shortcomings and give us the courage to follow always the path of truth.

O God, from whom all wisdom
and knowledge come
help me do my studies well
open my mind to the truth.
Make me diligent and constant
in the pursuit of learning.
Give me an attentive mind Lord,
Keen and alert so that I can concentrate
And grasp my lessons.
Give me an eager mind lord
To learn something new everyday
And may my aim always be to pierce
The vent of the visible world to search You.
O Invisible, Eternal, Unchangeable Truth.
And where there’s doubt true faith in you.

Ch. O master grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love with all my soul

Make me a channel of your peace
Where there’s despair in life, let me bring hope
And where there’s darkness only light
And where there’s sadness ever joy.

Make me a channel of your peace
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned
In giving to all men that we receive
And in dying that we are born to eternal life.
