Tune: Ach Gott Und Herr
(\'Strengthen for service, Lord, the hands\')
John 3 v.1-8 part
********
John\'s Gospel Series (3)
To start a life, one needs be born
And so a happy day dawns
But as it is so physically
So is true spiritually
For Jesus said, Nicodemus
It is true of all of us
That except we be born again
We cannot see kingdom then
Kingdom of God, one needs enter
Though one has been repenter
Must needs be born, born from above
Born of the Spirit, the dove
Meaning [to] be born spiritually
To the new covenant see
Only God can such a thing do
To give each one a heart new
Not enough to be religious
Shall not in itself save us
Nor in a Christian upbringing
We need our live to God bring
And neither ritual, observance
Though this appears a good stance
yet each needs a relationship
With Jesus and true worship
