Jonah

Running

Running from myself

Not a place

But a work that must be done

Forsaking

Forsaking to see the value

In the battle once the war is won

I climb aboard a boat waiting to sink

With the lost

Knowing they will pay the cost

For my

Running

I see their storms

I see their tossing with every whim

I toss with them as if I'm in

The same place

But I'm not

And the persistence of their storm

Is my doing

Because I'm

running

So the storm won't cease

Until Im in the belly of the beast

The darkness

Alone

With the one who heals

And reveals

And promises to rebuild

My purpose

I must journey to the depths

And arising on the third day

Just to trust and obey

Caz I might as well do what you say

Or the storm won't cease

There is a people waiting

They are praying

They have been promised hope

I must do the work

I must grow

I must swallow pride

I must go

I must obey

I must

I must

I will
