Gracious God, you identify with our humanity. In Jesus Christ, you were baptized by John in the River Jordan. You came to share our life and deliver us from sin and death. As this child is baptized with water, pour out your Holy Spirit upon him/her, to make us your beloved children through Jesus Christ, our Lord. May your Holy Spirit surround him/her, and those who love him/her. May he/she rest in your calm embrace, let his/her heart be warmed by the sound of your voice. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.
