Given in Love



Imagine our delight to discover
You entered our world,
A bundle of gorgeous grit,
A girl of untold wonder and wit.
You are our child, our sacred gift
Sent from above, every little bit of you,
A daughter of God, given in love.

We embrace this new journey ahead
With gratitude, grace, and steadfast faith.
Knowing it calls us to stretch and to grow
As we commit to letting you know
You are created in God’s image, made to bestow
Light from above, a heart of hope,
A daughter of God, given in love.

You have joined a great big family,
With members of every nation and race
All welcome because of God’s holy embrace
And we bring you, little sister, to this place
Of worship and wonder, as much as we do
Because here you belong, here you are you.
A daughter of God, given in love.

Your baptism today marks you with God’s kiss
And we celebrate your life as a gift
Not only for us, but for others too,
All who need to see Jesus anew
Will know that God is God, because you are you.
Yours from above, a promise to receive as
A daughter of God, given in love.

We love you dear Blaire Yvonne Munger,
And we will try with all that is within us,
To guide you to the good Shepherd, because


You are a daughter of God, given to love.






Grandparents!
