Chickagami Meal Graces
For over 50 years Camp Chickagami in Parkman, Ohio was operated as a summer camp with thousands of Scouts passing through the dining hall. Each meal was opened by the Dining Hall Steward holding up a large poster and everyone sang grace:
|
Breakfast
Gracious giver of all good
Thee we thank for rest and food.
Grant that all we do or say
In thy service be this day.
|
Lunch
Father for this noonday meal
We would speak the praise we feel.
Health and strength we have from thee,
Help us, lord, to faithful be.
|
Supper
Tireless guardian on our way,
Thou has kept us well this day.
While we thank thee we request
Care continued, pardon rest.
