Ninevah Bound

 

Ninevah Bound

 

Listen to me people, let me tell you what I’ve found

When God tells you to go, it’s no use hanging around.

‘cos if he wants you to be there

You’ll be Nineveh Bound

 

God said to his man Jonah, “Go to Nineveh town”

God said to his man Jonah, “Go to Nineveh town”

And Jonah said, “I’m going,

But I’m not Nineveh Bound”

 

Jonah boarded a ship to go the other way

He thought he could hide with the tourists in sunny Spain

But God had marked him down

And he was Nineveh Bound

 

When the wind came up, and the waves began to pound,

He was thrown overboard and Jonah he nearly drowned

But in the belly of the whale

He was Nineveh Bound

 

It doesn’t happen often, but when you get a clear word

There’s no use pretending that you haven’t heard

Don’t turn the Lord your God down

Should you be Nineveh Bound

 

You can try and try to give God the run around

You can try and try to give God the run around

He’ll use a whale if he has to,

But you’ll be Nineveh Bound
