Small hands in mine, a **prayer** we share,
The icon's gaze, a love to bear.
My child, my hope, my heart's delight,
Bathed in **#God's** grace, a guiding light.
Through somber hymns and candle's gleam,
A father's vow, a sacred dream.
To raise you strong, in faith and truth,
And shield you from the world's uncouth.
Though shadows fall and tears may sting,
The Theotokos, comfort bring.
Her gentle hand, a mother's plea,
For grace to bloom eternally.
From Pascha's joy to daily bread,
His love surrounds, no fear to dread.
In every step, a whispered **#Blessing**,
The Father's grace, forever resting.
