A Chinese Table Grace

Tien An Mei Fan
Tune for this grace is at page 792, United Methodist Hymnal

Tien an mei fan Bu nang wan How shun dah dung Dah wu liang.

God's Grace: each time we eat
We cannot forget
We greatly receive in abundance
Great physical food.

Shang di shang tse Wah jien kang. Gung chieu shang di Ji ling liang.

God bestows:
We are strong.
Pray to God
to give us spiritual food.
