God told Jonah
to go to Nineveh
to tell the people
to stop doing bad things.
jo-nah, jo-nah
don’t yah know yah
that God knows yah
and He will show yah
what way to go nah
jo-nah, jo-nah
let’s sing a song about Jo-nah
Jonah didn’t like
the people of Nineveh,
so he hopped on a boat
going toward Tarshish.
yeesh…
jo-nah, jo-nah
don’t yah know yah
that God knows yah
and He will show yah
what way to go nah
jo-nah, jo-nah
let’s sing a song about Jo-nah
A huge storm hit the sea.
Jonah knew it was because he
had disobeyed,
so he told the sailors the way
to make the storm stop
they simply had to drop
him into the sea
so that’s what they did to he
jo-nah, jo-nah
don’t yah know yah
that God knows yah
and He will show yah
what way to go nah
jo-nah, jo-nah
let’s sing a song about Jo-nah
As soon as Jonah dropped
the storm stopped,
and a giant fish
had a job to do
swallowed Jo-nah up
yes, this is true!
He stayed inside the fish
for three days
and nights,
telling God
he was sorry.
Lord, you’re always right!
this isn’t the end of the story!
jo-nah, jo-nah
don’t yah know yah
that God knows yah
and He will show yah
what way to go nah
jo-nah, jo-nah
let’s sing a song about Jo-nah
The fish spit Jo-nah out
on dry land.
This time, jo-nah went
Jo-nah followed God’s Command
and told the people to repent
The people obeyed
and changed their ways,
and God forgave their sins
now everyone knows that
God always wins!
jo-nah, jo-nah
don’t yah know yah
that God knows yah
and He will show yah
what way to go nah
jo-nah, jo-nah
let’s sing a song about Jo-nah
