Prayers before meals

BEFORE BREAKFAST

Through the prayers of our holy Fathers, Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on us. Amen.

Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done,

Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses, as we
forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, both now and for ever and until the ages of ages. Amen.
