954. Ye Must Be Born Again

1 That heavenly Teacher, in words that are plain,
This truth declared to men,
If ever they would to His kingdom attain,
They must be born again.

Refrain:
Ye must be born again,
Ye must be born again;
His words are true, He speaks to you,
Ye must be born again.

2 No mere reformation your sins can erase,
You cannot remove their stain;
If ever in heaven your soul has a place,
Ye must be born again. [Refrain]

3 Good works will not answer, no penance will do,
Morality, too, is vain,
For naught will avail but a creature made new,
Ye must be born again. [Refrain]

4 In Adam we lost all our righteous estate,
And would we it regain,
To Jesus must come and repent ere too late—
Ye must be born again. [Refrain]
