Jonah by Melanie R.

Oh, Jonah …oh, oh, oh, Jonah.
Jonah descended…
From the town,
to the dock,
boat to the sea,
surface to deepest depths.
Down, in the belly of the beast.

Oh, that whale consumed him!

Swallowed Jonah whole!

…And before he knew it,
taken to gates of Sheol.
A watery grave-
He cried out to The Lord a desperate prayer;
A humble plea for mercy,
and he was gracefully granted it.

God heard, and rescued Jonah
from the dark abyss.
The whale spit him forth to dry land;
Back to life again.

A second breath.
A second chance to do God’s will-
The One that reigns above the waves.
Gave new life;
Saved his life!
Brought Jonah all the way.

Hope by Melanie R.

In the deepest depths of the dark,
bringing life to drowning hearts.
Rescued from the whirlpool.
Lifeline from the flood.
Going through the storm,
swept over-
all washed up.

Jesus reached in troubled waters,
met me where I was.

Now I’m walking with Jesus on the waters in the storm!

Oh, hope from my Jesus, hope from my Lord!

Life for the drowning heart,

Hope if you’re drifting.

Hope if you’re lost.

Now I’m Walking with Jesus on the waters in the storm!

Zechariah 10:11
They will pass through the sea of trouble;the surging sea will be subdued.

Isaiah 43:16
Thus says The Lord, who makes a way in the sea; a path in the mighty waters.
