The song I sung at my little girl's dedication at church. I also have changed the lyrics for a boy too if you would like a copy to use just contact me. I also have a soundtrack(with out vocals ) if someone wanted to sing the song at a baby dedication service. Contact me at scottword@comcast.net

Back to You

(Scott Word)

(Guitar capoed on 6^th fret)

(G)

I fell in love the first time that I saw her

((C) (D)

That little smile sure melted her daddy's heart

(G)

And I know I was sent a treasure directly from Your heavens

((C) (D) (G)

Thank You for sending me my angel baby girl

(G) (C)(Bm7)(Am)

Now I’m giving her back to You, Lord

(D) (G)(Em)

I’m giving her back to You

(Am) (D)

Help me guide and protect her

(G)

From what this world can put her through

(C)(Bm7) (Am) (D)

There's only so much a daddy down on this

(Bm7) (Em)

ol' earth can do

(C)

Lord, I’m placing her in Your hands

(D)

Help her make the stand

(G)

I’m giving her back to You

(Bridge)

(Am) (Bm7) (C)

And I pray Thy will be done

(Am) (Bm7) (D)

That she will walk in the light of Your Son

(Back to Chorus)

(G) (C)

I’ll do my best to point her Your way

(D)

From this day I dedicate

(G)

I’m giving her back to You

Hisheart 2005-05-30	Very moving. Never heard anyone yet sing at their baby dedication. This song gets my vote.
weehoursmusic 2005-07-31	Beautiful song, I guess it's a daily thing giving her back, isn't it? Were you able to get through the song at the dedication? I cried each time I sang for my children. Lovely ~Bonnie

BobbyMcGee 2009-02-07	Good song Scott..How old is she? I know she'll always cherish it and as she grows older and has a daughter of her own, will understand and love it even more..
benchilcote 2009-12-10	Scott - thanks for sharing this with us. I wrote a song for baby dedication, too (it's on this site). I love your voice and share your sentiment in this song. I have 3 kids and my oldest is my little girl and she's almost 6. Thinking of her during this song makes it very meaningful. -Ben Chilcote (benchilcote.com)
