Chorus: God told Nicodemus, God told Nicodemus God, oh yes He did, He told Nicodemus a man he must-a be born again Well-a God told Nicodemus, God told Nicodemus God, oh yes He did, He told Nicodemus a man he must-a be born again Well there was a man among the Pharisees By the name of Nicodemus who did not believe Same Nicodemus came to God by night Talkin' 'bout religion from the human sight He brought along his silver, diamonds, and gold Wanted to buy his way to Heaven and save his soul Repeat Chorus Well the same Nicodemus came a runnin' hard Said "Has anybody here done seen the Lord? I want to buy some 'ligion, but what will it cost To get myself to Heaven 'fore my soul be lost? Then my God spoke, He spoke so sweet Sounded like the shuffle of angels feet He said "Marvel thou man, if you want to be wise You got to believe and be baptized" Repeat Chorus Then old Nicodemus was taken back Cause God done told him 'bout the natural fact He said "Marvel thou man, if you want to be wise You got to believe and be baptized" Old Nicodemus was taken back Cause God done told him 'bout the natural fact He said "I don't understand! I want to know How can be born when he's old?" Then my God spoke, His voice did ring Sounded like the shuffle of angels wings He said, "Marvel thou man, if you want to be wise You got to believe and be baptized" Repeat Chorus (x2) Well-a God told Nicodemus, God told Nicodemus God, oh yes He did, He told Nicodemus a man he must-a be born again I said man you must-a be born again We know that man you must-a be born again
