Baptism and Communion are two very important sacraments of the church. We can't have one without the other. They both would mean nothing if Jesus had not died on the cross for our sins. At my old church we sang a song after every Baptism called “Now I belong to Jesus”.
In my private devotional time I like to look at and read old hymns. Believe it or not “Now I belong to Jesus” is a hymn. So for our communiom meditation I would like read the rest of the song.
1. Jesus, my Lord, will love me forever, From Him no pow'r of evil can sever, He gave his life to ransom my soul, Now I belong to Him.
Now I belong to Jesus, Jesus belongs to me, Not for the years of time alone, but for eternity.
2. Once I was lost in sin's degradation, Jesus came down to bring me salvation, Lifted me up from sorrow and shame, Now I belong to Him.
Now I belong to Jesus, Jesus belongs to me, Not for the years of time alone, but for eternity.
3. Joy floods my soul, for Jesus has saved me, Freed me from sin that long enslaved me, His precious blood he gave to redeem, Now I belong to Him.
Now I belong to Jesus, Jesus belongs to me, Not for the years of time alone, but for eternity.
