If God can hear cries,
from a fish’s belly
I know He hears mine
also loud and clearly.
For wherever I am,
no matter my plight
God in my darkness
will too send His light.
If God can answer,
prayers out of distress
I know mine also
He’ll likewise address.
For it doesn’t matter,
where I might be
my pleas He will hear
and too answer me.
If God answers cries,
from a fish’s belly
I believe mine as well . . .
He’ll too hear readily!
~~~~~~~~~
“Then Jonah prayed unto
the Lord his God out of
the fish’s belly,
And said, I cried by reason
of mine affliction unto the Lord,
and he heard me;
out of the belly of hell cried I,
and thou heardest my voice.”
