Say grace, for example (4)
I believe the answer is:
pray
'say grace for example' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for pray that I've seen before include "Beg" , "Beseech" , "Hope earnestly (for particular outcome)" , "Address a deity" , "Wish earnestly (for a particular outcome)" .)
