Nicodemus (John 3)


GOD OF NEW BEGINNINGS

AND SECOND CHANCES

HERE I AM AGAIN



DID NICODEMUS UNDERSTAND

WHEN JESUS SAID

YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN

AND GOT HUNG UP ON BIOLOGY



YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN

EACH MORNING BORN AGAIN

AS IF RISING FROM YOUR BATH



NICODEMUS DID YOU KNOW

FIRST BORN

WET FROM YOUR MOTHER'S WOMB

THAT YOU WERE GOD'S SPECIAL CHILD

AS WE ALL ARE



OH NICODEMUS

GROWN SO OLD

AND ASKING THE SAME QUESTIONS

I HAVE COME TO BRING WATER

TO THE WORLD

AND BLOOD

TO BRING LIFE

I HAVE COME TO LOVE THE WORLD

AND SAVE IT





MASTER

I HAVE ALWAYS FELT SPECIAL TO GOD

AND COULD NOT COMPREHEND

THE EVIL DONE IN GOD'S NAME

LIKE THEY'RE TRYING TO KILL YOU



MY DREAM IS ALWAYS THAT MEN WILL CHANGE

MY HOPE IS ALWAYS THAT MEN WILL CHANGE







NICODEMUS

BE AT MY DEATH AND BURIAL

I WOULD LIKE A FRIENDLY HAND THERE

I HAVE SUCH A NEED FOR LOVE



FOR NOW OLD FRIEND

LET US SIT BY YOUR FIRE

FRIENDLY

AND IN GOOD HUMOR



IN THE SURE HOPE

OF NEW BEGINNINGS

AND SECOND CHANCES



OH GOD OF NEW BEGINNINGS

AND SECOND CHANCES

HERE WE ARE AGAIN



FRANK A VOLLMER
