India is my country,
All Indians are my brothers and sisters.
I love my country, and I am proud of its rich and varied heritage.
I shall always strive to be worthy of it.
I shall give my parents, teachers and all elders
respect and treat every one with courtesy.
I shall be kind to every one
To my country and my people, I pledge my devotion.
In their well-being and prosperity alone lies my happiness.
Jana gana mana adhinayaka jaya he
Bharata bhagya vidhata
Punjab Sind Gujarata Maratha
Dravida Utkala Banga
Vindya Himachala Yamuna Ganga
Uchala Jaladhi taranga
Tava subha name jage
Tava subha ashisha mange
Gahe tava jaya gatha
Jana gana mangla dayaka jaya he
Bharata bhagya vidhata
Jaya he, jaya he, jaya he
Jaya, jaya, jaya, jaya he.
Our father who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy name,
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us,
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil. Amen.
Lord make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is discord, union;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy;
O Divine Master, grant that
I may not so much seek,
To be consoled, as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love, for
It is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and
It is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
God, our loving Father,
You created this beautiful world,
and made man lord of all creation.
Today in our selfishness,
our pride, our greed,
and our wanton way of life,
we have brought discord, violence
and war into our dear land
O merciful Father,
heal our wounded hearts and minds,
pour the balm of your love and peace
into our troubled land,
and bring once more
the fragrance of fresh hope,
trust and harmony
among us — your broken people
so that soon from every heart may echo
the praise and glory of your Name. Amen.
Lord of wisdom and knowledge,
bless us with confidence and courage.
Help us to recall what we have studied.
Grant us good health of mind and body
so that we may do well in our examination. Amen.
God almighty Father of us all,
bless us and our food,
which we are about to have
so that we may grow
in health of mind and body.
Bless all those people who in some way or other have helped in preparing this food.
God give us the grace to work for the good of others. Amen.
Father in Heaven we thank
you and praise you
for the food you gave us.
Bless and feed all the people
who suffer and die of hunger
make us generous
that we may share our bread with the hungry. Amen.
