Scripture Reading from Jonah 1:17-2:10   Scripture response is a song played on guitar and sung by Rev. Bell “Jonah and the Whale,” vs. 2 and 3   Verse 2 Then ol’ Jonah forth was sent That old Nineveh might repent But instead of that to Tarshish he set sail Oh the sailors, they were kind But Jonah had a stubborn mind So off the ship he went into the belly of a whale.   Chorus Over there, In that land bright bright and fair Oh he’ll tell me all about it over there On the hallelujah strand God will take me by the hand And he’ll tell me all about it over there!   Verse 3 In the cold and briny deep Tears of grief did Jonah weep And a prayed a prayer that God his skin might save Three long days and three long nights Jonah bargained for his life God delivered him to shore from a watery grave   Chorus
