Daniel Joshua and Jonah

Daniel Joshua and Jonah (children's song music & lyrics by Joan Donnelly 1991) Verse 1 Now Daniel was thrown to the Lions but he was in God's care Daniel prayed to God three times a day and Jesus heard his prayer Jesus locked the lion's jaw tight because Daniel did what was right And the King arrived and set Daniel free ...safe in the King's arms Daniel did flee. Chorus 1: You can now hear Daniel praising: Oh Halleluiah, You scareded dat, awsul bad, maded me mad, that awsul bad lion away. Verse 2: Now Jonah was a rebel who refused to obey Then he woke up in the belly of a whale swimming 'round in his tears 3 days God sent the whale to Nineveh where he spat Jonah out from his insides Cuz Jonah said he'd obey God and spread the gospel to the Ninevites Who turned from wickedness and God saved their hides Chorus 2: Oh Halleluiah Jesus, Jonah sang, I love you You opened the mouth of the whale and rescued me Cuz I'm too good for blubber stew. Verse 3: Now Joshua was an Israeli soldier and a gem to God was he Joshua and army marched 'round the walls of Jericho 'til they tumbled supernaturally And God never, never, never, never, never, never , never ignores those who repent and pray Jesus sanctifies, and he purifies cuz He is the Light and the Truth and the Way. Chorus 3: Oh Halleluiah Jesus I love You ooo hoo hoo hoo Oh Halleluiah I love You, I love You, I love You
