Here is a short video clip with two candle songs and several graces–both spoken and sung. I’ve put the words to the songs and verses below. Enjoy!
Video content:
-Candle lighting song:
Give me a light, to light my way
Truth is the light, the wise men say
-Simple Grace (spoken):
Blessings on our meal, peace in our hearts, and peace upon the earth
-Grace (sung):
Earth who gives to us this food, sun who makes it ripe and good
Sun above, earth below, to you our loving thanks we show
-Grace (sung):
Blessings on the blossom
Blessings on the fruit
Blessings on the leaf and stem
Blessings on the root
-Grace (spoken):
Before the flour, the grain
Before the grain, the mill
Before the mill, the sun, the rain
The beauty of God’s will
-Candle song (for ending the meal):
Candle, candle, burning bright
Thank you for your golden light
