#194: Ye Must Be Born Again

(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith)

1

A ruler once came to Jesus by night

To ask Him the way of salvation and light;

The Master made answer in words true and plain,

“Ye must be born again.”

CHORUS

“Ye must be born again, (again,) Ye must be born again; (again;)

I verily, verily say unto thee, “Ye must be born again.” (again.)

2

Ye children of men, attend to the word

So solemnly uttered by Jesus the Lord,

And let not this message to you be in vain,

“Ye must be born again.”

CHORUS

3

O ye who would enter that glorious rest

And sing with the ransomed the song of the blest,

The life everlasting if ye would obtain,

“Ye must be born again.”

CHORUS

4

A dear one in heaven thy heart yearns to see,

At the beautiful gate may be watching for thee;

Then list to the note of this solemn refrain,

“Ye must be born again.”

CHORUS
