lirik lagu grandpa jones - jonah and the whale
in the bible, we are told of a prophet who was called
to the city steeped in awful sin
all the people in that place were devoid of savin’ grace
and the prophet seemed afraid to enter in
when the prophet forth was sent, that old nineveh might repent
but instead of that, to tarshish he set sail
oh, the winds began to blow, overboard did jonah throw
and he found the mercy seat inside the whale
over there (over there) in that land so bright and fair
we’ll tell him all about it over there
in that hallelujah land, i’ll take jonah by the hand
and we’ll tell him all about it over there
in the cold and briny deep, tears of grief did jonah weep
and the big fish threw him out upon the shore
then he quickly went his way, preached to nineveh night and day
for he did not dare to backslide anymore
now, some people don’t believe that a whale could him receive
but still that doesn’t prove my song untrue
there are whales on every side, with their big mouths open wide
take care, my friend, that one don’t swallow you
over there (over there) in that land so bright and fair
we’ll tell him all about it over there
in that hallelujah land, i’ll take jonah by the hand
and we’ll tell him all about it over there
many souls are tossed about by the whales of fear and doubt
but the savior wants to take you by the hand
if you will his voice obey, he will save you right away
and lead you safely to the promised land
over there (over there) in that land so bright and fair
we’ll tell him all about it over there
in that hallelujah land, i’ll take jonah by the hand
and we’ll tell him all about it over there
