Reggae Sunday School cover
17. Jonah
Album: Reggae Sunday School
Artist: Christafari
         
 

VERSE ONE: Ooh Jonah, Oh Jonah / This one's about Jonah / And how the Father told the man to go-a / To the place that they call Nineveh / But Jonah said no-huh? / 'Cause Nineveh was in sin--o / And Jonah he no want to go in--no / And so he headed in the wrong direction / And ignored the Father's instruction

CHORUS: Have a whale of a time now Jonah (Jonah) / Hope you're feeling fine now Jonah (Jonah) / Cause in a little while you'll get swallowed by a smile / In a whale for some time now Jonah (Jonah) / (Repeat) / (Verse One A) / And about to face judgment, oh no / If only Jonah would go / God's grace would show / (Chorus).

You keep a runnin' (keep a runnin') / From the Lord (Jonah) / And when you run / You run in the wrong direction / So keep runnin' (keep a runnin') / But for the Lord (Jonah) / And when you run / Don't run in the wrong direction / (Chorus).

Jonah you have to make up your mind right now / Get up & get out of the big fish mouth / Tell these rebellious people & shout / The Lord is near & He's reaching out / In every city, village & town / Mercy & grace is all around / Yes you have to make up your mind right now / Get up & get out of the big fish mouth / (Chorus).

Featuring 'Imisi (Mark Mohr & Jubilee Fohe)
