Second Sunday in Lent

John 3

Now there was a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews.

2 He came to Jesus by night and said to him "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God; for no one can do these signs that you do apart from the presence of God."

3 Jesus answered him, "Very truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above."

4 Nicodemus said to him, "How can anyone be born after having grown old? Can one enter a second time into the mother's womb and be born?"

5 Jesus answered, "Very truly, I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit.

6 What is born of flesh is flesh, and what is born of Spirit is spirit.

7 Do not be astonished that I said to you 'You must be born from above.'

8 The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.…"

Spirit of god, blow through us;
Spirit of god, blow through us,
Spirit of god, blow through us,

I lift my face to the wind;

Spirit of god, blow through us;

I raise my arms to the rain.

Spirit of god, blow through us;

I wait to hear where you are.

Spirit of god, blow through us;

I rest and listen for you.

Spirit of god, blow through us;
Spirit of god, blow through us,
Spirit of god, blow through us,
