Our children, Lord, in faith and prayer, we baptise in your name. Let them your cov’nant mercies share as we our faith proclaim.
[Sing to the Lord 385]

2. while dwelling here below; to us and ours, O Lord of grace,
2. Such children you did once embrace
while dwelling here below;
to us and ours, O Lord of grace,
the same compassion show.

3. from sinful snares, we pray. Throughout their lives let them endure
3. In all their days their hearts secure
from sinful snares, we pray.
Throughout their lives let them endure
in ev’ry righteous way.
Sing to the Lord 385
