Run Jonah Run! - Poem

Run Jonah Run!

Run Jonah run!
From God’s only son
See how far you can go
Farther than any boat can row

Run Jonah run! 
Toward the setting sun
Surely God can prepare
A different prophet to serve Him there

Sail Jonah sail!
Escape to ocean’s mighty whale
Prepared to swallow thee whole
To wrest your eternal soul

Pray Jonah pray!
From the belly of hell today
Seek His all searching eye
Who waits to hear your humble cry

Speak Jonah speak!
That Nineveh might repent
Awakening from sinful sleep
In one day their souls to save

See Jonah see!
Witness wind and withering tree
None can from His power flee
God’s love saves them and thee
