Hello Grapey! Hope you and Lil Grapey are both doing well.
Congratulations to Baby Grapey!

How about:
Morning has Broken or All things bright and beautiful

Have a look at this site, you might get some ideas.

All things Bright and Beautiful is a lovely hymn to have - most people know the words and sing their hearts out. Good luck on the day and congrat's to baby x

You right Tonyted; I read the question but failed to pay attention.

I don' t see it being tacky, I see it as being appropriate, the lyrics are lovely.

I read the question too! I don't think any hymns are tacky but I guess it's down to personal taste.
All things bright and beautiful fits so well with a Christening as that's just what a baby is.... Bright and Beautiful.
