In God's Hands Ninevah

 

How large the heavens are!

How short our time on earth!

 Our sun, our fiery star,

Can be eclipsed, we learn

 Just like in Nineveh

In darkness, they repented!

Turned to the Son of God

And kept the commandments!

Our future's are up in the air

Then we find that we have been

In God's hands all along

Oh now sing, of love's redeeming song

Surprise those who doubted you

Would listen and turn around!

Like Jonah even when God sent him to...

But God knows where His sheep are found

 I read something that said that Jonah didn't want to go to Nineveh, but when he did people there repented because, partly, they saw a solar eclipse and felt that it was a sign- a call for repentance.
