A Godparent’s Promise

Precious little Godchild.

You are surely heaven sent.

Becoming your Godparent

is a sacred compliment.

 

I promise your parents

and God who dwells above;

Until the day I pass away

you’ll feel, and know, my love.

 

Though you are but an infant,

I promise from this day

to be your friend and mentor

as you walk along life’s way.

 

I accept this holy honor,

bestowed on me anew,

and promise, child, to be

a worthy Godparent to you.
