Jonah - Sister Rosetta Tharpe[00:00:00]
Written by:Tharpe[00:00:01]
In the Bible we are told[00:00:07]
Of a prophet who was called[00:00:11]
To a city that was steeped[00:00:14]
An awful sin[00:00:17]
All the people in that place[00:00:21]
Were devoid of saving grace[00:00:25]
And the prophet wased afraid to enter in[00:00:28]
Oh some people don't believe[00:00:35]
That a whale could him receive[00:00:39]
But that was not make my song[00:00:42]
At all untrue[00:00:45]
Why the whales on every side[00:00:49]
With their big mouths open wide[00:00:52]
Just take care my friend[00:00:56]
Or one will swallow you[00:00:58]
Then this prophet[00:01:32]
Forth was sent[00:01:33]
That old nineveh[00:01:35]
Might repent[00:01:36]
But instead of that[00:01:39]
To tarshish[00:01:41]
He set sail[00:01:42]
Oh the winds began to blow[00:01:46]
Overboard did Jonah go[00:01:50]
And he found a Mercy seat[00:01:53]
Inside the whale[00:01:56]
In the cold and briny deeps[00:02:00]
Tears of grief[00:02:03]
Did Jonah weep[00:02:05]
And the big fish[00:02:07]
Threw him out upon the shore[00:02:09]
Then he gladly gladly went his way[00:02:14]
Yeah[00:02:17]
Preached to nineveh[00:02:18]
Nineveh night and day[00:02:19]
And he did not care[00:02:21]
To backslide any more[00:02:24]
Oh thats people don't believe[00:02:28]
That a whale could him receive[00:02:32]
But that does not make my song[00:02:36]
At all untrue[00:02:39]
They are whales[00:02:43]
Whales on every side[00:02:44]
Yeah[00:02:46]
With their big mouths[00:02:47]
Open wide[00:02:48]
Just take care my friends[00:02:50]
Or one will swallow you[00:02:52]
