[Genesis 6:1-9 and Genesis 7]
|
[Chorus]
|
Noah was a knower, he knew the heart of God
|
Noah was a knower, to build the wooden ark <i>[x2]
|
All the animals crawling on the ground
|
couldn't help that man had fallen
|
God looked down with an awful frown,
|
knew he must bring lots of water
|
Drown the sins there to be found
|
Man had disobeyed his calling
|
There is someone who is holy
|
He must work to save the animals
|
|
[Chorus repeat]
|
|
Noah was praying, just hanging around
|
shut his face from all who'd fallen
|
God said build the Ark right now,
|
save the animals from the water
|
Noah had faith in God's command
|
even though he'd never seen thunder
|
Got to working with his family
|
|
building the Ark
|
|
[Chorus repeat]
|
|
100 years of banging tools
|
Laughed at by his neighbours scorn
|
40 days and 40 nights
|
Smelly animals all around
|
|
[Middle bit]
|
God's calling is always a challenge
|
It may not be what you would seem
|
But following his ways through life
|
ends up leading to the mountain top
|
|
Heard the animals two by two
|
Chooks and cows and kangaroos
|
Close the doors as rain comes down
|
All his neighbours start to drown
|
As the boat began to rock
|
all the sin was washed away
|
100 years of real hard work
|
Noah sat down and had a coffee
|
|
Finally the waters went
|
Noah was on the mountain top
|
The rainbow came as a new promise
|
God would show his mercy often
|
|
[Middle bit repeat]
|
|
[Chorus repeat]
|
