Grace with a difference

Recently the 8th Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment had a reunion and at the reunion dinner the Battalion Padre from Vietnam days was called upon to say grace. By memory a conservative Padre, all were a little shocked and much amused by the following.

Bless the ‘taters, bless the chooks
Bless the waiters, bless the cooks
Jesus Christ, most devine
He who turned water into wine
Please bless these simple men
Who are about to turn it back again
