For peace and liberty, for food and raiment,
for corn and wine and milk and daily bread,
for every wholesome nourishment, I thank thee, Good God, I thank thee.

For all the benefits of air and sunshine,
for useful fire and water pure, for every element of life, 
I thank thee, Good God, I thank thee.

For Art and books and music, for useful and curious knowledge,
for the prosperity of my friends and the fewness of my foes, 
I thank thee Good God, I thank thee.

For all the benefits, for life and reason, for use of speech, 
for health and strength and joy,
for every pleasant hour I spend, I thank thee Good God, I thank thee.
