Christening Verses
****
Your darling little angel
Was sent from Heaven above;
As you celebrate his (her) Christening
You're surrounding him (her) with love.
****
As you join this family
We love having you around;
Within this new family
You'll find Gods love abound.
Jesus is the one through whom
Your entrance ticket bought;
With his life's sacrifice
His fishing net you've caught.
Fishers of men his disciples were
And that's what you'll become;
Living by Gods high standards
As if you and he were one.

Some of the names we've used since you were born
Are not appropriate at all;
In our exhausted moments usually around 3a.m.
A few names you were called.
Everyone has been full of ideas
So seriously we have been deep in thought;
Spending time poring over books
Giving serious study and time we ought.
But in the end after much debate
A film stars name we found:
So Jodie is the name for you
We like the name , we like the sound.

Christening Verses
****
As the droplets of water
On your forehead fall;
You will bear the mark
And answer his call.
Be as nice as nice can be;
Bring praise and honor to his name
And pride to your Grandad and me.

As your Godparents from this day
We will set a good example;
So being good and being kind
And that is just a sample.
Respect and honor for your parents
Is one of the famous ten;
Grandparents and Godparents count too
So that's our prayer, Amen
****
May God bless and keep you always,
May your wishes all come true,
May you always do for others
And let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
May you grow up to be righteous,
May you grow up to be true,
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
Stand upright and be strong,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
May your hands always be busy,
May your feet always be swift,
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful,
May your song always be sung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
Bob Dylan
