Born Again (berceuse)

I have found a new road
Yes, I'm through with old ways
Now, I have a new heart
(The) Spirit's in this jar of clay
I have taken a new direction,
(A) mid-course correction in me
(The) Word says I'm a new man
He's blessed me with plan 'B'

Jesus gave me (a) new name
I'll not be the same again
Now, I have a new life
With a godly drive within
I have entered a new covenant
(A) new testament with hope
The Lord has new mercies
Water for the thirsty soul

Chorus:
Born again, born again, I've a new Dad above
Born again, born again, I've been born out of love
Born again, born again, I depend on Him only
Born again, born again, I will never be lonely
He takes pleasure,
I'm a treasured one,
In His tender arms

Some day we'll sing new songs
Right up where we belong there
Soon we'll age like new wine
That's what the true vine bears
There's no waiting for new government
(The) new commandment is love
Finally, there'll be new things:
(A) city from the King above

(chorus)

(solo - fiddle, accordian, or band)
Laissez les bon temps Rouler!

(chorus)

(optional verse 4)
Life renews ev'ry morn
Like a dear new born babe
All things have their seasons
All things let the reasons wait
One day there'll be a new creation
A liberation from sin
Now, the patches are torn
Till the world is born again

(alt. ending for verse 1)
I have taken a new direction,
(A) mid-course correction in pride
(The) Word says I'm a new man
The old has gone and died
