Hymn 277
This is Jehovah’s great command
Meter: 8.6.8.6.
Scripture: John 3:5
1
This is Jehovah’s great command,
And ever it shall be,
Let sinners like you and like me
Be regenerated.
2
Our paths no doubt, shall be darken’d
If we are still in sin;
His kingdom then we cannot see
If we’re not born again.
3
If we are baptised many times,
Vanity shall they be;
It cannot wash away our sins
If we’re not born again.
4
All the evil works that we do
Without the help of God,
They cannot renew all our hearts
If we ‘re not born again.
5
Depart from thy daily sins now,
Cut satan’s chain away;
Believe the Lord with all thy hearts,
Thou shalt be born again.
