I'm deep inside the fish
Of my halting mental fears
Strangling in the belly
Of the fish these many years
Like Jonah, I desired to
Proclaim the Father's will
But afraid of what would happen
I remained in prison still
I tried to get away
On a boat that sails the sea
A storm came up and all
The crew looked fearfully at me
I realized I can't escape
The Father's will at all
The mental malformations from
My mind began to fall
And then I tossed my body
In that wild churning sea
And soon a fish swam over
And slowly swallowed me
I've been here many years now
In the belly of this fish
Thinking what I'd do if I
Were granted just one wish
My Father has the best for me
Within His holy mind
Let me serve You, Father,
As You work our Your design
Let me be released from
The bondage of this fish
To do the will of You, dear God,
That is my deepest wish
