I belong to Jesus;
I am not my own;
All I have and all I am,
Shall be His alone.
I belong to Jesus;
He is Lord and King,
Reigning in my inmost heart,
Over everything.
I belong to Jesus;
Blessèd, blessèd thought!
With His own most precious blood
Has my soul been bought.
I belong to Jesus;
He has died for me;
I am His and He is mine,
Through eternity.
I belong to Jesus;
He will keep my soul,
When the deathly waters dark
Round about me roll.
I belong to Jesus;
And ere long I’ll stand
With my precious Savior there
In the glory land.
(Maud Fraser, 1891)
Good one, Crissy! Thank you. May we all have more and more of the attitude expressed in this old hymn.

O God
In this world thou hast given me a beginning,
one day it will be perfected in the realm above.
Thou hast helped me to see and know Christ…
