A Baptismal Prayer

Heavenly Father,

In your love you have called us to know you,
led us to trust you,
and bound our life with yours.

Surround this child with your love,
protect it from evil.

Fill it with the holy spirit and
receive it into the family of your church,
that it may walk with us in the way of Christ,
and grow in the knowledge of your love.

You’re taking this step of faith. In obedience to the Lord
To be baptized in His precious name, And heed the Masters call

To rise up with faith in God. And go where He may leadTo
share Gods love to everyone, And touch them in their need

May God pour out His blessings. Upon your life todaySo you
may walk in His abundance, As you commit to Him your way

Keep on trusting in the Lord. No matter what you face
And keep your eyes on Jesus Christ, And live in His sweet grace.
