"Jonah Was A Prophet"


When I was a boy I went to church back home in Arizona
And that is where I heard the tale of a man whose name was Jonah
now Jonah was a prophet, but that's not why he's remembered
They tell the tale, Cause in a whale he nearly was dismembered!

CHORUS
Jonah was a prophet
oo-ooh!
but he really never got it
sad but true!
and if you watch it you can spot it
a-doodley-doo!
he did not get the point!

Compassion and mercy from me to you and you to me
exactly what god wants to see and yes that is the point!

CHORUS

Now Jonah Set Sail On A Pirate ship
In a dreadful gale
Got eaten up by a giant whale
But then its not to be said
You think he would learn alot
From being saved from an awful spot
But the second chance that he had got
He didn't want to be spread
now poor old Jonah
and now he's all alone-ah
gotta use a megaphone-ah
to get it through to his head-HEY!

CHORUS

now during your life you prob'ly don't ride on a camel
and you prob'ly won't wake up inside a large aquatic mammal
but all the same like Jonah there is something you can do
everyone deserves to get a second chance from you!

Compassion and mercy from me to you and you to me
Exactly what god wants to see and yes that is the point!

"Somewhere In The World"

Somewhere in the world today
A little girl will go out to play
All dressed up in mama's clothes
At least the way that I suppose it goes
Somewhere in the world tonight
Before she reaches to turn out the light
She'll be prayin' from a tender heart
A simple prayer that's a work of art

Chorus
And I don't even know her name
But I'm prayin' for her just the same
That the Lord will write His name upon her heart
'Cause somewhere in the course of this life
A little boy will need a godly wife
So hold on to Jesus, baby, wherever you are

Somewhere in the world out there
That little girl's learnin' how to care
She's pickin' up her mamas charms
Or maybe, swingin' 'round in her daddy's arms
Somewhere in the world to be
Though the future's not real clear to me
Their's could be a tender love
Grounded in eternal love above

Repeat Chorus
