Can't help to say,
that you are not on top of my list.
When I think of you
I am reminded of your strong bitterness.

Even salted meat
can hardly diminish the taste,
but my conscience gives me the strength
to follow through,
telling me not to waste food,
even if it doesn't taste that good.

Many would yearn to be in my place
and that's why I'm grateful still,
when you're served on my plate.
So that's why you're still hear me pray:
"Thank You Lord and please bless this food,
in Jesus Name!"
