BAPTISM: NEW CREATURE FEATURES
Out of the grave of baptism, Comes a great baptismal feature; A gift from God will await you, When you emerge a brand new creature. His gift is the Holy Spirit, Who is God in a another form. He will abide inside you, To help you know right from wrong. Christ paid the price, now you’re ransomed, From bondage to sin and its pain; Peace that passes understanding, Is another feature you gain. Since you’ve been created anew, In heaven you have a new name. Your new birth has brought you new life; Praise God, you are not the same. Your new heart will sing a new song; New thoughts will fill your mind. A new love for life, a new attitude, New hope in the Lord you will find. These gifts are available to everyone, Baptized to become a new creature, Whose life is truly transformed by God; Praise God for His new creature features. Becky Overturf Wall
