  2. Here is a simple Dinner Prayer:

    Komm, Herr Jesu, sei unser Gast

    Und segne, was Du uns bescheret hast. Amen

    Translation:

    Come Lord Jesus and be our guest

    and let these gifts to us be blest.

    Vater, segne diese Speise

    Uns zur Kraft und dir zum Preise!

    Hilf, Gott, heut und allezeit,

    Mach uns bereit fuer die Ewigkeit. Amen

    Translation:

    Father, bless this meal

    for our strengthening and to your praise!

    help us, God, today and at all times,

    make us prepared for eternity.

    Herr, Du hilfst aus aller Not,

    Gibst uns unser taeglich Brot,

    Speisest alle, gross und klein:

    Lass uns Dir befohlen sein. Amen

    Translation:

    Lord, you help in every need,

    you give us our daily bread,

    you feed all, great and small:

    let us be committed to you.

    Segne, Vater, was wir essen

    Lass uns Deiner nicht vergessen

    Lieber Gott fuer Speis' und Trank

    Und alle Guete sei Dir Dank. Amen

    Translation:

    Bless, Father, what we eat

    let us not forget you

    dear God for food and drink

    and for all goodness we give you thanks.

    Hope this is what you are looking for.
