While Catholics can pray any prayer before meals, many families in the English-speaking world have said the same prayer for centuries.
Here are the words of this most common Catholic prayer before meals.
Bless us, O Lord, and these
thy gifts which we are about
to receive from thy bounty,
through Christ our Lord. Amen.
