Noah Lyrics:
Written by Orville Brooks, Ted Brooks, Caleb Ginyard & George McFadden
Oh Noah
Oh oh Noah
Oh oh Noah
God's gonna ride on the wind and tide
Oh Noah
Oh oh Noah
Oh oh Noah
God’s gonna ride on the wind and tide
Brother Noah, my god’s talking (God's gonna ride on the wind and tide)
Say you'll ride on the wind and tide
[Verse 1]
Hey stop, be still, and listen to me
God walked down to the rowdy sea
He declared that evil had descended to man
And then he decided to destroy the land
He spoke to Noah and Noah stopped
He said "Noah, I want you to build me an ark"
I want you to build it three cubit long
I want you to build it big and strong
I want you to build it fifty high and fifty wide
So it will withstand the wind and tide
[Hook]
Oh Noah
Oh oh Noah
Oh oh Noah
God's gonna ride on the wind and tide
Oh Noah
Oh oh Noah
Oh oh Noah
God’s gonna ride on the wind and tide
Brother Noah, my god’s talking (God's gonna ride on the wind and tide)
Say you'll ride on the wind and tide
[Verse 2]
Well after the foundation was laid
Then Brother Noah began to hew and build
The ringing of the hammer that judgement
The hewing of the saw that sinner repent
One hundred years he hammered and sawed
Building the ark by the grace of God
When the ark was built God's voice was heard
He said "Now, Noah let me tell you what to do.”
“I want you to call in the animals two by two.”
So he called them in the ark two by two
Bears, the oxford, and the kangaroo
Then he called in Japeth, and Ham, and Shem
Then God began to flood the land
He raised his hands to heaven on high
Shook the stars and they moved from the sky
Shook the mountains, he troubled the sea
Hist the wind, his chariot decree
He stood on land and stood on the shore
And declared that time there wouldn't be no more
[Outro]
Oh Noah
Oh oh Noah
Oh oh Noah
God's gonna ride on the wind & tide
