Today's Beautiful Gem: `Praise God' - an Abyssinian Jewish liturgy.

"Praised be God who gave me to eat and to drink.
I shall praise and bless God.

He helps the afflicted. Praise God.
He clothes the poor. Praise God.
He is bread for the hungry. Praise God.
He is a spring for the thirsty. Praise God.

He gives but none gives to Him. Praise God.
He lends but none lends to Him. Praise God.
He increases but none adds to Him. Praise God.
He teaches but none teaches Him. Praise God.

There is none save Him. Praise God."

om s'aantih: Peace! - J. K. Mohana Rao
