FATHER

Snippet

My kids have given me a glimpse of how God must feel. God looks at us, like, ‘Oh, good grief…you’re driving me crazy, but I still love you.' - Jeff Foxworthy, Actor and TV host

Scripture

When the Council saw the boldness of Peter and John and could see that they were obviously uneducated non-professionals, they were amazed and realized what being with Jesus had done for them! Acts 4:13 LB

Song
The One You Need Shane & Shane

Hey hey sweet daughter
I am so proud to be your father
Each day is like a gift from God
Hey hey sweet daughter
There's no music like your laughter
And your smile is like a rising sun
You know I loved you from the start
So come in close
Take my hand for daddy shares his heart
I wish that I could be your everything
Be the one to give you all the things you need
Sometimes I'm gonna let you down
But there's someone if you just believe
Be your hero like He's always been for me
Darling, Jesus is the one you need
No matter what you walk through
He will always love you just the way you are
For there's nothing in this world
That I'd walk for my baby girl
That she'll be happy ever after
The story of your life is still untold
I pray the King of all the Universe
Would make your heart His own
I wish that I could be your everything
Be the one to give you all the things you need
Sometimes I'm gonna let you down
But there's someone if you just believe
Be your hero like He's always been for me
Darling, Jesus is the one
Who will never leave
He's been there all along
All ready You can find to love
I wish that I could be your everything
Be the one to give you all the things you need
Sometimes I'm gonna let you down
But there's someone if you just believe
Be your hero like He's always been for me
Darling, Jesus is the one you need

Sentence Prayer

Dearest Father in Heaven,
Bless this child and bless this day
Of new beginnings.
Smile upon this child
And surround this child, Lord,
With the soft mantle of your love.
Teach this child to follow in your footsteps,
And to live life in the ways of
Love, faith, hope and charity.

A Gaelic Christening Blessing
