I can't think of a better tune than "Now Thank We All our God," a Crueger tune of the highest class. I love you, John, and I'm so happy God has kept Monica safe and will bring your daughter safely to the font tomorrow.
Lord Jesus, praise to You,
Who bless the little children!
You in a holy bath
Give sinners precious pardon;
The promise we have heard
Puts unbelief to flight,
And at your holy Word
Our darkness turns to light.
Lord Jesus, praise to You,
True God of God begotten;
Your flesh and blood declare
That we are not forgotten.
From Mary's womb You came
To sanctify our birth,
And taking all our shame
Bring peace to all the earth.
Lord Jesus, praise to You!
Your Word remains unbroken;
All foes must flee in fear
When once Your name is spoken.
From infant songs of praise
You show your pow'r to save,
And with it you will raise
The faithful from the grave.
Lord Jesus, praise to You,
Let young and old now gather,
And sing their psalms with joy
To You and God the Father,
Whom with the Spirit we
Will worship now, and soon
With our own eyes shall see
Our God the Three in One.

Beautiful, Mark. Thank you. I can't wait until my little girl can sing that with me.
