A poem by Robert Burns

Grace Before And After Meat

________________________________________________
Title:     Grace Before And After Meat
Author: Robert Burns [More Titles by Burns]

O Lord, when hunger pinches sore,
Do thou stand us in stead,
And send us, from thy bounteous store,
A tup or wether head! Amen.

O Lord, since we have feasted thus,
Which we so little merit,
Let Meg now take away the flesh,
And Jock bring in the spirit! Amen.
