Jonah

Jonah Jonah where are you

Jonah Jonah where are you

The Lord came to me way down around Joppa Bay

He said get up Jonah go preach to Ninaveha

But I didn't wanna

Why should I preach to them

So I got on a boat and took it the other way

Oh Jonah where are you going

Where are you going

Who do you think you are you cannot hide

Oh Jonah won't you stop running yeah

Won't you stop running

You know in your heart

You cannot escape my eye

A terrible storm came up out on the sea

The captain and the crew

Finally figured out the trouble was me

I said all will be well

Just throw me over the side

So over I went into the belly of a fish

Three days and nights

Oh Jonah where are you going yeah

Where are you going

Who do you think you are you cannot hide

Oh Jonah won't you stop running yeah

Won't you stop running

You know in your heart

You cannot escape my eye

The waters were dark the waves rushing over

The seaweed was wrapped round my head

The ocean was raging

My soul was a fainting

And then I remembered your face

And I cried out Adonai save me

And you heard me

From the depths you brought me

Hallelujah hallelujah

Hallelujah halleljuah

I learned the value of boldness on that day

It really doesn't matter

What plot gets in your way

Right or wrong you cannot run from him

You're never too near or far to hear him say

Oh Jonah where are you going yeah

Where are you going

Who do you think you are you cannot hide

Oh Jonah won't you stop running yeah

Won't you stop running

You know in your heart

You cannot escape my eye

Oh oh

Jonah Jonah
