204. YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN

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,

Chorus:

“Ye must be born again!”

Ye must be born again!”

Ye must be born again!”

I verily, verily say unto thee-

Ye must be born 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!”

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.”

4. A dear one in heaven thy heart yearns to see,

At the beautiful gates may be watching for thee;

Then list to the note of this solemn refrain,

“Ye must be born again.”

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
