A Grace Before Dinner, Extempore

  a grace before dinner, extempore
  o thou who kindly dost provide
  for every creature's want!
  we bless thee, god of nature wide,
  for all thy goodness lent:
  and if it please thee, heavenly guide,
  may never worse be sent;
  but, whether granted, or denied,
  lord, bless us with content. amen!
