Verse 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,
Ye must be born again;
I verily, verily say unto thee,
Ye must be born again`

Verse 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
''Ye must be born again,
Ye must be born again;
I verily, verily say unto thee,
Ye must be born again`

Verse 3
Oh, 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
''Ye must be born again,
Ye must be born again;
I verily, verily say unto thee,
Ye must be born again`

Verse 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
''Ye must be born again,
Ye must be born again;
I verily, verily say unto thee,
Ye must be born again`
