While the silv'ry moonbeams fall
Calmly o'er Judea's plains
To the Lord the ruler comes
Heavenly wisdom there obtains.

chorus:
Born again we all must be
If the Kingdom we would see
Born again we all must be
If the Kingdom we would see.

Not alone by noble deeds,
Not be pennance, pain or pryaer;
Not alone by human creeds
Can we find an entrance there.

(chorus)

Wond'rous change!  And are the fruits
Of the new life found in me?
Have I e'er been born again -
Can I e'er the Kingdom see?

(chorus)
