My Three White Dresses

by: Linda Gay Perry Nelson

My mom bought me a white dress,Not red or pink or blue. 
She said it was a special dress, Like very other few, 
There has been just one before, A dress now put away, 
That I wore some time ago,Upon my blessing day.
As a little baby clothed In my first white dress, 
My dad held me in his arms,There to name and bless. 

So pure and clean was I just then, With time to grow and learn 
About the Father's plan for me.My glory I must earn. 

Now I've reached the age to judge, The wrong road from the right,
And I am here to be baptized, In this dress of white. 
So once again I'm free from sin. The path is clear to me. 
I'll grasp the rod and hold on tight, I vow with certainty. 
Just as mud would stain my dress, Sin would stain my soul. 
The key is to repent or bleach, For whiteness is my goal. 

And if I try my very best,Then richly blessed I'll be, 
Wearing inside God's holy house, White dress number three, 
So today I make this pledge: I'll strive to choose the right, 
Through this sacred baptism ordinance,In my second dress of white.
