A song to coincide with learning about Jonah and the fish.
lyrics
V1
“Go to Nineveh and tell them to repent”
That’s what God told Jonah but that’s not where Jonah went
Jonah disobeyed and was gobbled in the sea
The funny thing with Jonah is that He’s a lot like me!
CHORUS
Oh wow! Look how much God loves us!
Oh wow! Look how much he cares!
Oh wow! Look how God’s love finds us
Even when we try to run away
V2
Jonah stayed inside a fish who kept him safe and sound
Then God allowed the fish to spit him back on solid ground
Jonah ran to Nineveh to tell them what was true
I think if I were Jonah, that’s exactly what I’d do!
CHORUS
Oh wow! Look how much God loves us!
Oh wow! Look how much he cares!
Oh wow! Look how God’s love finds us
Even when we try to run away
V3
The people all repented and God saved them from their sin
I think they learned they lesson and won’t turn from God again!
CHORUS
Oh wow! Look how much God loves us!
Oh wow! Look how much he cares!
Oh wow! Look how God’s love finds us
Even when we try to run away
CHORUS
Oh wow! Look how much God loves us!
Oh wow! Look how much he cares!
Oh wow! Look how God’s love finds us
Even when we try to run away
Even when we try to run away
