At the end of every meal with bread, we conclude with birchat hamazon, the grace after meals. On Shabbat, we add a paragraph that speaks of the uniqueness of this day and a prayer that our weekly "taste of the World to Come" shall bring us to "the day that is wholly Shabbat and tranquility, for life everlasting" — the age of Moshiach.
