about

This song is sung by some of the youngest children in the school. A couple of them had recently arrived from living on the streets. Their hair was auburn in colour due to malnutrition, this soon changes to jet black with a healthy diet. How their lives had changed - from the streets to a home and now recording in a few short weeks and the only signs was auburn tipped hair.

lyrics

Jonah, Jonah, Oh Jonah!
Go to the city of Nineveh.
Take My Word to them,
And tell them to stop sinning.
Jonah, Jonah, Oh Jonah!
Go to the city of Nineveh.

Oh no, Oh no, I’ll not go!
I’ll catch a boat and go far away.
Your work does not please me,
So I will run and hide from You.
Oh no, Oh no, I’ll not go!
I’ll catch a boat and go far away.

Lord, Lord, Oh Lord!
The fish swallowed me! Please help me!
The waves are so strong they woke me up.
I know I’m wrong. Please forgive me.
Lord, Lord, Oh Lord!
The fish swallowed me! Please help me!

Jonah, Jonah, Oh Jonah!
Go to the city of Nineveh.
Take My Word to them,
And tell them to stop sinning.
Lord, Lord, Oh Lord!
I’m going! I’m on my way!
