Blessing for Children

Gracious God, in the vulnerability of a child, we recognize our own fragility.

In their tender innocence, we are reminded that life is meant to be lived with curious and joyful abandon.

Help us, who are no longer children, to retain the freshness of childhood and to be the protectors and mentors of those whose lives are just beginning.

May we see in their eyes the clear window of heaven.

Guide us in the ways to keep all children safe and in your great love, O Lord, hold them in your peaceful embrace so they are not overcome by loneliness, fear, or danger.
We ask this for the sake of your love.
Amen.
