Prière devant le repas

O Souverain Pasteur, et Maistre,
Regarde ce trouppeau petit,
Et de tes biens souffre le paistre,
Sans desordonné appetit,
Nourrissant petit à petit
A ce jour d'huy ta creature,
Par celluy qui pour nous vestit
Ung corps subject à nourriture.

Prière devant le repas

O Souverain Pasteur, et Maître,
Regarde ce troupeau petit,
Et de tes biens souffre le paître,
Sans désordonné appétit,
Nourrissant petit à petit
Aujourd’hui ta créature,
Par celui qui pour nous vêtit
Un corps sujet à nourriture.

bedezang voor het eten

O herder, hoog en zeer verheven,
aanschouw uw kudde, z’is zo klein
Wil met uw goede gaven stillen
hun honger, zonder overdaad;
verzadig beetje bij beetje
al uw schepselen op deze dag,
door hem die ons voorzag
van een lichaam ten spijs gegeven.

Grace before meals

O Sovereign Shepherd and Master,
Look upon this little flock,
And from your hand
Grant us your poor creatures
Nourishment enough,
Day by day and little by little,
Through Him who for our sakes
Assumed a body subject to hunger.
