VISIT BY NIGHT


A ruler came to Jesus Christ
Under the cover of night
He wasn't sure of some things
He wanted to know what was right
Jesus told him plainly
You must be born again
You won't see God's Kingdom
If your heart is full of sin

What is this born again
Can I the second time
Enter into my mother's womb
Nicodemus was so blind
Then Jesus told him that
You were born of the flesh
To be born of the Spirit
Is much different than this

He told him God so loved
The world that He sent Him
Whoever believed upon His name
Would be free from sin
He was the light of God
Sent to a world that's lost
He was sent to save them
Though great would be the cost

Now Nicodemus knew
Why Jesus really came
He knew without a doubt
His life wouldn't be the same
To accept this Jesus
He could pay quite a cost
The choice was only his
He could be saved or lost

It's still the same today
The choice is still the same
If you want to be born again
You must call on Jesus' name
You must ask Him to forgive
Your sins and make you whole
For Jesus is still the only one
Who can save your soul

(John 3:1-21)
