An Angel fell down from Heaven
And landed in our Arms,
With all of Mummy's Sweetness
And all of Daddy's charm
Babies are Angels
That fly to the earth,
Their wings disappear
at the time of their birth.
One look in their eyes
And we're never the same
They're part of us now
And that part has a name.
That part is your heart
And a bond that won't sever,
Our Babies are Angels,
We love them forever.
God Bless this child
With all the gifts,
That heaven can bestow.
With kind and gentle nurturing,
And strength to
Thrive and grow.
God Bless this child with
Health and hope
And courage, come what may,
With commonsense
And confidence
And faith to light the way.
God Bless this child with
books to read
And new paths to explore,
With smiles to share,
Family & friends who care
On this day we place our child
In God's care forevermore
Ten precious little fingers,
Ten precious little toes,
Two beautiful starry eyes,
One cute button nose.
Tiny yawns and sleepy sighs,
nursery rhymes and lullabies.
Toothless smiles,
Darling little baby styles,
A brand new life has just begun,
Dreams to be fulfilled
by you, Little one.
You’ve been a special blessing
Since the day that you arrived,
Bringing so much happiness
And filling hearts with pride.
And now that it's your Naming
/Communion/Baptism Day
This brings a special prayer
That God will always keep
You in the shelter
Of his Care
A small child
So precious and sweet,
Has come into our lives
To make us complete.
Today is so special
In every which way
Congratulations baby
(insert name)
On this your
Special Naming Day
Tiny yawns and sleepy sighs
Nursery rhymes and lullabies
A brand new life has just begun
Oh, what fun to have a son!
Welcome, precious little child,
So fresh from God above.
Christened/Baptised today in Jesus' name,
Held in His arms of love.
May Angels guide
Your tiny feet,
And bring you
Smiles to wear,
And may our heavenly Father,
Always keep you in his care.
You have come into the world so tiny,
Yet with such great
Promise for the future.
Before you were even born,
God planned wonderful
Things for you.
As you are Baptised/Christened,
May you feel his love
And the love of those
around you,
And may you always
follow in His way.
You were created in love
By the Lord,
And when you were born,
He was there,
And He's with you now
As your christened/Baptised today,
And placed in his
Warm tender care.
His angels will watch
Over you, as you’re
Growing, as everyday brings
Something new, for you are
His beautiful and
Beloved child,
And He cares very
Much about you.
Love, joy, and wonderful dreams
All the sweet things
A new baby brings
We must know that
We have been created
For greater things,
Not just to be a number
In the world
We have been created in order
To love and to be loved
Mother Teresa
Truly a miracle,
a gift from above
I love you, not only
For what you are,
But for what I am
When I am with you.
Roy Croft
Grow old along with me
The best is yet to be.
Robert Browning
Love is patient,
Love is kind.
It does not envy,
It does not boast,
It is not proud.
It is not rude,
It is not self-seeking,
It is not easily angered,
It keeps no record
Of wrongs,
Love does not delight
In evil but rejoices with
The truth.
It always protects,
Always trusts, always hopes,
Always perseveres.
What therefore God
Has joined together,
Let no man separate.
Mark 10:9
Marriage is that relation
Between man and woman
In which the independence
Is equal,
The dependence mutual,
And the obligation reciprocal.
Two souls with but a
Single thought
Two hearts that beat as one
May God be with you and Bless you.
May you see your children's children.
May you be poor in misfortunes
And rich in blessings.
May you know nothing but
Happiness from this day forward.
Love is composed of a
Single soul inhabiting
Two bodies
Aristotle
This day I will
Marry my friend,
The one I laugh with,
Live for, dream with, love.
Anonymous
Two souls and one thought,
two hearts and one pulse.
Halen
I'll paint a sun to warm your heart,
Knowing that we'll never part.
I'll draw the years all passing by,
So much to learn, so much to try.
True love is a sacred flame,
That burns eternally.
And none can dim its special glow,
Or change its destiny.
Two lives, two hearts
Joined together in friendship
United forever in love.

As you were,
You will always be,
Treasured forever
In our memory
In our hearts today and always
The Lord is my shepherd
I shall not want.
In green pastures
He gives me repose.
Beside restful waters
He leads me;
He refreshes my soul.
He guides me
Along the right path
For his name's sake.
Even if I walk
In the dark valley
I fear no evil;
For you are at my side
Our father who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
On earth as it is in Heaven
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil
For thine is the Kingdom,
The power and glory,
For ever and ever.
Amen
Always loved, never forgotten.
Those we love don’t go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear
If tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven,
And bring you home again
Our hearts are warmed
By the knowledge that
"Insert name"
Joins us today in spirit
To bless our union.
We honour his/her love
With candlelight
With us in spirit and in our hearts
Say not in grief,
‘He is no more’,
But live in thankfulness
That he was.
Hebrew Proverb
