God, You gave us a child
Out of love You gave
A man child to us
We are only stewards
Of the child You have sent
Now, we return him to You

God’s love came in a bundle
Of love, hope and joy
With time love has grown
And stands here a young man
We are placing in your hands
We dedicate our son to You

Lord, thank You for the time
Thank you for the days
To watch this child grow
Bless him with Your mercy
Bound in Your loving grace
Living in Your eternity

Praying to You in faith
Hoping and unseen
Are the dreams we dream
Of the created child
Created in Your Son
In His image and His likeness
