I Am Jonah

You have forgiven
You were willing to call my name
Now You call me to love the same
As one of Your children
Displayed Your love to me recklessly
I see Your passion upon a tree

You won me a kingdom
And I will live in a paradise
I will worship You day and night
You gave the commission
That I should seek to love the lost
Show the love of the King whatever the cost

I am Jonah, I keep running away
Three nights in darkness, three days in the grave
Without Your grace Lord, that's where I would stay
But there's golden shores where washed-up sinners lay

I'm undeserving
A broken mind and a heart of stone
Another Pharaoh upon His throne
I am unworthy
You drown my sin in a sea of blood
Then lift me up with the cords of love

You tell me to love where there's none
Where it's dark to preach Son
To speak life 'til it's done and your kingdom has come
You tell me to go but I run

So give me Your courage
Make me willing to count the cost
To take my place on my knees in the shade of the cross

I am Jonah, I keep running away
Three nights in darkness, three days in the grave
Without Your grace Lord, that's where I would stay
But there's golden shores where washed-up sinners lay

There's golden
There's golden
Where washed up sinners lay
There's golden
There's golden
Where washed up sinners lay

I am Jonah, I keep running away
Three nights in darkness, three days in the grave
Without Your grace Lord, that's where I would stay
But there's golden shores where washed-up sinners lay
(Where washed up sinners lay)
I am Jonah, I keep running away
Three nights in darkness, three days in the grave
Without Your grace Lord, that's where I would stay
But there's golden shores where washed-up sinners lay
