Jonah - Sister Rosetta Tharpe

In the Bible we are told

Of a prophet who was called

To a city that was steeped in awful sin

All the people in that place

Were devoid of saving grace

And the prophet seemed afraid to enter in

Over there, over there

In that land bright and fair

Oh, he'll tell me all about it over there

On the hallelujah strand

I'll take Jonah by the hand

And he'll tell me all about it over there

Then this prophet forth was sent

That old Nineveh might repent

But instead of that to Tarshish he set sail

Oh! the winds began to blow

Overboard did Jonah go

And he found a mercy seat inside the whale

Over there, over there

In that land bright and fair

Oh, he'll tell me all about it over there

On the hallelujah strand

I'll take Jonah by the hand

And he'll tell me all about it over there

In the cold and briny deep

Tears of grief did Jonah weep

And the big fish threw him out upon the shore

Then he gladly went his way

Preached to Nineveh night and day

And he did not care to backslide any more

Over there, over there

In that land bright and fair

Oh, he'll tell me all about it over there

On the hallelujah strand

I'll take Jonah by the hand

And he'll tell me all about it over there

Oh, some people don't believe

That a whale could him receive

But that does not make my song at all untrue

There are whales on every side

With their big mouths open wide—

Just take care, my friend, or one will swallow you

Over there, over there

In that land bright and fair

Oh, he'll tell me all about it over there

On the hallelujah strand

I'll take Jonah by the hand

And he'll tell me all about it over there

Many souls are tossed about

By the whales of fear and doubt

But the Savior wants to take them by the hand

If they will His voice obey

He will save them right away

And will guide them safely to the promised land

Over there, over there

In that land bright and fair

Oh, he'll tell me all about it over there

On the hallelujah strand

I'll take Jonah by the hand

And he'll tell me all about it over there
