Brooke Ligertwood - Nineveh Lyrics

Nineveh
Oh Nineveh                
The Lord is turning toward you      
Compassion or calamity
Will you heed the warning
 
Fall on your knees              
Tear down your idols
When you choose surrender
You choose survival
 
Call on His Name
Turn from your violence
Out of the ashes
He will revive You
 
God have mercy
God have mercy
                   
I know You are a gracious God    
I know You’re slow to anger        
But I misunderstood Your love
Forgive me God for running
 
You sent a wind            
Stirred up the ocean
Still I rebelled
My heart wasn’t open
 
But when I prayed
You were there waiting
I made a vow
To speak Your salvation
                         
Nineveh
Oh Nineveh
The Lord is turning toward you
 
Holy Spirit help me see         
Where there is Nineveh in me 
Turn away Your wrath once more                               
God have mercy        
 
Perfect prophet, priest, and King                                     
Christ became the reckoning  
In His body bore my sin        
Now to all who trust in Him     
God has mercy                
God have mercy on us         
 
Nineveh
Oh Nineveh
The Lord is turning toward you
