Hey, have you heard about the song “Jonah, Job and Moses”? It’s this amazing track that I stumbled upon recently, and I just can’t stop thinking about it. The song brilliantly intertwines the stories of these three iconic figures, but what really got me is how it makes their ancient struggles feel so relevant to our lives today.
You know how sometimes life throws curveballs, and you wonder if anyone else has ever felt the same way? This song captures that exact feeling. It dives into Jonah’s reluctance, Job’s unwavering faith amidst suffering, and Moses’s journey of leadership and doubt. Listening to it, I felt this deep connection—as if the song was reminding me that facing challenges is a universal experience, and there’s wisdom to be found in these old stories.
The melody is soulful and haunting, with a chorus that’s been stuck in my head for days. It’s the kind of song that you play on a quiet evening when you’re reflecting on life or need a bit of comfort. Honestly, it’s like a friend wrapping their arm around you and saying, “We’ve all been there, and we’ll get through it together

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
