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,
“Ye must be born again!”

Ye must be born again!”

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.”

And let not this message to you be in vain:
“Ye must be born again.”

Oh, 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.”
And sing with the ransomed the song of the blest,
The life everlasting if ye would obtain,
“Ye must be born again.”

There’s life in the lifted-up Savior today;
The Spirit will sanctify all who obey;
If ye would repent and believe in His name,
Ye shall be born again!

Ye shall be born again!

Note the new verse 4, which speaks being sanctified and obeying to receive the Lord and be born again.
There’s life in the lifted-up Savior today;
The Spirit will sanctify all who obey;
If ye would repent and believe in His name,
Ye shall be born again!
Several verses confirm this:
1 Pet. 1:2-3 Chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father in the sanctification of the Spirit unto the obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has regenerated us unto a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
vs. 2 We are chosen in sanctification of the Spirit unto the obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ and God. We are regenerated unto a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead
John 1:12-13 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the authority to become children of God, to those who believe into His name, who were begotten not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God
We received Him and became the children of God by believing into His name. We were thus begotten (regenerated or born again) of God.
