Born Again

Peter Vogel • English

Primary Scripture: John 3:7

Verse 1

Long was I a wand'rer, Jesus now is mine; Yes, I've found a Savior, Human and divine, High He lives in glory, Low to earth He came, Told the wondrous story, Life in Jesus' name.

Chorus

Then praise the Lord, my Savior, Oh, praise His holy name; I'll sing His praise forever, For I am born again.

Verse 2

Equal with the Father, Poor like man on earth, Mighty as Creator, Weak as babes at birth; Hated and rejected, Crucified to die; Buried, ris'n, ascended, Pleads my cause on high.

Chorus

Then praise the Lord, my Savior, Oh, praise His holy name; I'll sing His praise forever, For I am born again.

Verse 3

"I will ne'er forsake thee," Thus His promise stands; "In my hands I'll bear thee O'er the burning sands." Full on Him relying, Weakness is my strength; Waiting, toiling, dying, Heav'n is mine at length.

Chorus

Then praise the Lord, my Savior, Oh, praise His holy name; I'll sing His praise forever, For I am born again.

Verse 4

Sweet, oh, sweet the service, Which to Him I give; Hearken--come, dear sinner, Now my soul doth live. Taste the precious Savior-- Feel the joy divine; Know the love unbounded, Jesus now is mine.

Chorus

Then praise the Lord, my Savior, Oh, praise His holy name; I'll sing His praise forever, For I am born again.
