Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Good Lord, Mmm
For behold the man
Who knoweth right from wrong,
The man knoweth truth.
Yeah man
Good lord, you have
From all stray's and misery.
You have lifted me up,
Aaoh and put me higher
From all sins and misery.
I'm born again, wooh wee.
I'm free from sins, aah boy,
I'm born again, at last
I'm free from sins, wooh, listen
Verily verily they say, except
A man be born of the water.
He cannot see the kingdom
Of God, so they say.
If you want to be washed,
In the spirit and the blood.
From all sins believe me,
You can be overcome.
And be born again, wooh wee,
And free from sins, aah Lord.
God Lord and born again, wooh,
And free from sins, aah play for me
Good lord, aah boy
Mmm yeah.
Blessed is the man who walketh
Not in the counsil of the ungodly.
Aahh Lord.
So you may ask the question,
How to be born again?
And thou say you have
To be redeemed within
I'm born of the water,
The spirit and the blood.
From all sins, I've over come.
I'm born again, good Lord,
I'm free from sin, aah boy.
I'm born again, thank God,
I'm free from sins, wooh yea.
Listen.
Dear lord, you have
Answered my prayer,
From all stray's and misery.
You have lifted me up,
And put me higher
From all sins and misery.
I'm born again, good lord
I'm free from sin, whoo.
