The Oak Ridge Boys - Jonah, Job & Moses lyrics

They were solid as a rock and stubborn as a stone Honest to the core and ornery to the bone And the Good Book says their lot in life Was not a bed of roses for Jonah, Job and Moses Now Jonah knew the darkness in a belly of a whale And Job saw tribulation and Moses went through hell There were tears and fears and heartaches In big and bigger doses for Jonah, Job and Moses And me, I'm just a struggling soul Ten thousand years removed I've been lost out in the desert I've been swallowed and consumed And I pray to God for patience Make me more like those three Help me survive my troubles Let me join that band of brothers Let it be Jonah, Job, Moses and me I've battled with some demons, I've lost the ones I've loved I shook my fist at Jesus and I could not rise above It was in the anger of those hours I came to feel the closest to Jonah, Job and Moses 'Cause me, I'm just a struggling soul Ten thousand years removed I've been lost out in the desert I've been swallowed and consumed And I pray to God for patience Make me more like those three Help me survive my troubles Let me join that band of brothers Let it be Jonah, Job, Moses and me Lord, let it be Jonah, Job, Moses and me They were solid as a rock and stubborn as a stone
