| The ceiling of the Arian baptistry - Ravenna, Italy, 5th C. AD |
By the Rev. Charles Wesley
LORD of all, with pure intent,
From their tenderest infancy
In thy temple we present
Whom we first received from thee:
Through thy well-beloved Son,
Ours acknowledge for thine own.
Sealed with the baptismal seal,
Purchased by the atoning blood,
Jesus, in our children dwell,
Make their heart the house of God:
Fill thy consecrated shrine,
Father, Son, and Spirit divine.
