The storm was raging on the deep blue sea
A prophet running from his destiny
They cast the lots and threw him over board
Into the belly of the whale he roared
Three days and nights in the dark and the deep
A promise that the Father meant to keep
Just like the sign that the prophet Jonah gave
Rising up strong from a watery grave
Three days down in the heart of the earth
Bringing the soul to a brand new birth
The shadow of the cross in the deep of the sea
The sign of the Son for you and for me
The Pharisees asked for a sign to be shown
But the greatest wonder was already known
For the Son of Man would lay His head down low
Where the silent tides of the valley flow
But death couldn't hold Him and the grave couldn't stay
He walked out alive on the third glorious day
Out of the belly, out of the dark
The light of the world struck a holy spark
From the depths of the ocean to the garden tomb
Life was breaking through the silence and the gloom
Just like the sign that the prophet Jonah gave
Rising up strong from a watery grave
Three days down in the heart of the earth
Bringing the soul to a brand new birth
The shadow of the cross in the deep of the sea
The sign of the Son for you and for me
The sign of Jonah
Three days and nights
He is risen
