Selah 5 Let the peoples praise you, O God; let all the peoples praise you. 6 The earth has yielded its increase; God, our God has blessed us. 7 May God continue to bless us; let all the ends of the earth revere him.

Almighty and loving God,

We thank you that through your great love you have fed us from our Lord's table and have assured us that your goodness to us never fails.
