A Pagan Grace

Credits

A Pagan Grace is an easy-to-learn food blessing song. We use it often to bless our feast after our rituals or before meals in our homes. We hope you will, too! This is track 15 on our album Seasons: A Pagan Journey Around the Wheel, available here. Shannon sang lead with additional vocals by Marilyn and Alane. The percussion is by Issa, with Charlie on glockenspiel. Alane Crowomyn wrote this song. Production of A Pagan Grace was sponsored by Jose.

Lyrics

Dear Goddess, I ask you to bless this my food.
To the elements making it my gratitude
May the gift of this sustenance give me the fuel
to allow me to share my own gifts with the world

Dear Goddess, we ask you to bless this our food (we say)
to the elements making it our gratitude (always.)
May the gift of this sustenance give us the fuel (today)
to allow us to share our own gifts with the world (we pray.)
