lyrics

There once was a man
Who didn't understand
He had heard the voice of God
But he didn't want to go, No

So he got onboard a ship
Trying to run away from his
Convictions, but that wasn't very wise
A storm of biblical size came in

I can relate
Because I am the same
I'm always running away

The storm did come in
The waves crashed down
And the men aboard the ship
They were worried
For their lives so they threw
Everything overboard that they could

Jonah now knew
That it was his fault
He admitted to the crew
He hit the water and the commotion stopped

As we all know God showed grace

I can relate
Because I am the same
I'm always running away

But You are still the same
So full of Grace
And I realize now just what you want from me:

Not just a part
But every single thing.
There is no sense
In ever running.
