                          -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-


            Chorus
            Noah was a knower, he knew the heart of God
            Noah was a knower, to build the wooden ark  x 2

            Verse 1
            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

            Verse 2
            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 heïd never seen thunder
            Got to working with his family
            building the Ark

            Chorus repeat

            Bridge 1
            100 years of banging tools
            Laughed at by his neighbours scorn
            40 days and 40 nights
            Smelly animals all around

            Middle bit
            Cod's calling is always a challenge
            It may not be what you would seem
            But following his ways trough life
            ends up leading to the mountain top


            Verse 3
            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

            Bridge 2
            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
