Original Trinity Hymnal, #353

Dear Lord, today, our child,
An heritage from thee,
We bring in faith and claim for him
Thy promise free.

Dear Lord, today, our child,
Sweet token of thy love,
We bring into thy church
For blessings from above.

Dear Lord, today our child,
Rich treasure of thy grace,
We bring upon his brow
The sign and seal to place.

Dear Lord, today, our child,
A gracious gift of thine,
We bring to set apart,
Baptized in Name Divine.

Dear Lord, today our child,
The fruit of God-blessed seed,
We bring to thee to ask
For help in ev'ry need.
