Now I sit me down to eat,

I pray the Lord I will not cheat.

If I should reach for cake or bread,

Please guide my hands to greens,

yuk!

in stead.

But help me,

Lord,

if I indulge

And lose the battle of the bulge,

To understand that,

ounce for ounce,

It’s what I am that really counts!

 

正當我坐下來要用膳，

我向主祈禱我不要作弊。

於是我伸手拿糕點和麵包，

請引領我手去拿蔬菜，

哈哈！

已蔬菜代替糕點和麵包。

但求祢幫助我，

主啊，

要是大吃大喝

讓果腹之欲戰勝了我，

才能明白

吃下去的每一口

都會變成將來的自己！
