Hold Tight

Every life is precious.
This finger holds my history
The beating of my heart
The years of my life
The finger extends to assure the future

Hold on dear child
To the history
The love
The years
The knowledge

In your baptism
The waters that flow
The hands that hold
The oil that anoints

We the family
Commit to love you
To bring you to the table
To teach you the stories
To sing you the songs
To shower you with God's love

This is your day, dear Eloise
