About the Addams Family Grace

A Scout is Reverent and grace before meals is normally said or sung when together. This Addams Family Grace is a song. The tune is the theme of the Addams Family show. (Hence the name.)

At our kids grade school, the students often get to choose which grace they will say before lunch. When DS’s class was in third or fourth grade they picked this one all of the time.

I think there are additional verses and probably many variations. This short version is easy for Cub Scouts to memorize.

Addams Family Grace

Sing this to the tune of theme of the old Addams Family TV show, snapping fingers where indicated

Da da da dum (snap snap)
Da da da dum (snap snap)
Da da da dum
Da da da dum
Da da da dum (snap snap)

We thank you for this food Lord
For Mom and Dad and You Lord
We thank you for this food Lord
It helps us through the day

Ah – ah – men (snap snap)
Ah – ah – men (snap snap)
Ah – ah – men
Ah – ah – men
Ah – ah – men (snap snap)

although I don’t think many boys know the Flintstones anymore, another fun grace is to their tune

God is great and God is good
so let us thank him for our food
God is great and God is good
so let us thank him for our food

Amen
A A A A A Amen
Amen
A A A A A Amen

God is great and God is good
so let us thank Him for our
we’ll thank Him for our
we thank Him for our food.

  Here is the version that I grew up with…
  
  God is great, God is good
  Let us thank him for our food
  By His hands we all are fed
  Thank you Lord for our daily bread
  
  AMEN!

Here is another version – same tune – we use this one for Girl Scouts…

We thank the Lord for giving
This food we need for living
For food and fun and friendship
We thank thee now oh Lord.

I have different words for this tune:

2 ADDAMS FAMILY GRACE
TUNE: The Old Addams Family Theme

Be present at our table LORD,
Be here and every where adored.
These mercies bless and grant that we,
May love serve and obey Thee.
Ah-ah-amen (snap-snap)* Ah-ah-amen (snap-snap)* Ah-ah-amen, Ah-ah-amen, Ah-ah-amen (snap-snap)*

*Note: Cross arms when snapping fingers

My wife is tutoring children at a church day care and many of them come from broken homes. She wanted to give them a cute grace but didn’t want to use “Mom and Dad” in the words, so I suggested:

We thank you for our food Lord,
For family friends and you Lord …..
