158. We must be born again

1 Sinners, this solemn truth regard!
Hear, all ye sons of men;
For Christ, the Savior, hath declar'd,
"Ye must be born again."

2 Whate'er might be your birth or blood,
The sinner's boast is vain;
Thus saith the glorious Son of God,
"Ye must be born again."

3 Our nature's totally deprav'd--
The heart a sink of sin;
Without a change we can't be saved;
"Ye must be born again."

4 [That which is born of flesh is flesh,
And flesh it will remain;
Then marvel not that Jesus saith,
"Ye must be born again."]

5 Spirit of life, thy grace impart,
And breathe on sinners slain;
Bear witness, Lord in ev'ry heart,
That we are born again.

6 Dear Savior, let us now begin
To trust and love thy word;
And, by forsaking every sin,
Prove we are born of God.
