Catholic Prayer: Prayer of the Christian Farmer
Description:
Any farmer or just a city gardener will find this a beautiful prayer.
This prayer can be said in conjunction with the novena to St. Isidore.
Prayer:
O God, Source and Giver of all things, Who manifests Your infinite majesty, power and goodness in the earth about us, we give You honor and glory.
For the sun and rain, for the manifold fruits of our fields, for the increase of our herds and flocks we thank You. For the enrichment of our souls with divine grace, we are grateful.
Supreme Lord of the harvest, graciously accept us and the fruits of our toil, in union with Christ Your Son, as atonement for our sins, for the growth of Your Church, for peace and charity in our homes, for salvation to all. Amen.
