Lyrics:
God said go to Nineveh
and them to repent
God said go to Nineveh
but guess where Jonah went
God said GO, Jonah said NO
Run was his intent
Run-away Jonah
was gonna disobey
Run run run, run run away now
Jonah ran away
Run run run, run run away now
Jonah ran away
Run run run, run run away now
Jonah ran away
you can run from God but you wont get far!
He got on a ship, and sailed away
but the Lord God sent a storm
He got on a ship, and sailed away
the Lord God sent a storm
He got on a ship, and sailed away
the Lord God sent a storm
the run away ship began to dip, roll and sway
Run run run, run run away now
Jonah ran away
Run run run, run run away now
Jonah ran away
Run run run, run run away now
Jonah ran away
you can run from God but you wont get far
He hid in the hold and fell asleep
the storm raged all around
He hid in the hold and fell asleep
the storm raged all around
He hid in the hold and fell asleep
the storm raged all around
because of Jonah they all were gonna drown
Hide hide hide, hide hide away now,
Jonah hid away
Hide hide hide, hide hide away now,
Jonah hid away
Hide hide hide, hide hide away now,
Jonah hid away
You can hide from God but you cant get far.
The ship was sinking,
so the sailors threw him in the sea
The ship was sinking,
so the sailors threw him in the sea
The ship was sinking,
so the sailors threw him in the sea
Run-away Jonah drifted helplessly!
God sent a fish
a fearsome fish to swallow Jonah whole
God sent a fish
a fearsome fish to swallow Jonah whole
God sent a fish
a fearsome fish to swallow Jonah whole
Unlike Jonah it did what it was told!
Deep in the belly of the fearsome fish
far from the light of day
Deep in the belly of the fearsome fish
far from the light of day
Deep in the belly of the fearsome fish
far from the light of day
Run-away Jonah the time had come to pray!
Pray pray pray, pray Jonah pray
now he began to pray
Pray pray pray, pray Jonah pray
now he began to pray
Pray pray pray, pray Jonah pray
now he began to pray
If you pray to the Lord, you will get far!
He prayed Lord you held me in the sea
He prayed Lord your waves swept over me
He prayed Lord salvation comes from you
He prayed Lord I’ll do what you want me too
God told the fish, the faithful fish
to spit him on dry land
God told the fish, the faithful fish
to spit him on dry sand
God told the fish, the faithful fish
to spit him on the strand
Run-away Jonah came out a different man
Run run run, run-away Jonah
did not run away
Run run run, run-away Jonah
ragged to obey
Run run run, run-away Jonah
said to God OK
if I run from God
I wont get far
God said go to Nineveh
and them to repent.
God said go to Nineveh
and this time Jonah went
God said GO, run-away Jonah
went where was sent
If you go with God
you will get far
Go go go, go Jonah go now
you’re a different man
Go go go, go Jonah go
according to God’s plan
Go go go, go Jonah go
He’ll take you by the hand
If you go with God,
you will get far
Run-away Jonah with God
you will get far
Run-away Jonah went to Nineveh
