Nourish And Strengthen Our Bodies & do Us The Good That We Need

When I awaken, no soup in my bowl,
I need something bless-ed to fill up my soul.
I don't want no juice box, no Rice Crispy Treat. (sweet)
I need somethin' higher to keep me on my feet.

Nourish and strengthen our bodies and do us the good that we need,
To carry us through the rest of this day.
Nourish and strengthen our bodies, our mealtime creed
Be it casserole or Jell-o, bless it!
Oooh, these things we pray.
Nourish us today.

We bow our heads together, prayin' please bless this food.
Especially that meat loaf, I promise I'll be good.
Some of these concoctions are a fearful nasty sight,
There's seven different kinds of sherbet floating in my Sprite.
Dude, that ain't right!

Nourish and strengthen our bodies and do us the good that we need,
To carry us through the rest of this day.
Nourish and strengthen our bodies, our mealtime creed
If there's ketchup on your tuna, bless it!
Oooh, these things we pray.
Nourish us today.

I've never seen so many covered dishes.
A clinic in preparing string beans.
Reminds me of those loaves and those fishes
We say this every time though we're not sure what it means.

Nourish and strengthen our bodies and do us the good that we need,
To carry us through the rest of this day.
Nourish and strengthen our bodies, our mealtime creed
Punch and brownies at your fireside, bless it!
Oooh, these things we pray.
Nourish us today.

Nourish and strengthen our bodies and do us the good that we need,
To carry us through the rest of this day.
Nourish and strengthen our bodies, our mealtime creed
Melt velveeta on zucchini, bless it!
Oooh, these things we pray.
Nourish us today.

Nourish and strengthen our bodies and do us the good that we need,
To carry us through the rest of this day.
Nourish and strengthen our bodies, our mealtime creed
Every morsel on your table, bless it!
Oooh, these things we pray.
Nourish us today.
