Message from the Lord is a song from Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie. It is sung by Jonah and the Veggie People.

Lyrics

Jonah: Do not fight, do not cheat.

Wash your hands before you eat,

There is nothing quite as sweet.

A message from the Lord!

Be a friend, say your prayers.

Heaven loves a heart that cares.

That is why I've come to share a message from the Lord.

And if you follow God's commands,

There will be peace throughout the land!

You will live long and happy lives!

With your sheep, your kids, your wives!

Don't eat pigs, Don't eat bats,

Don't eat beetles, flies or gnats,

Stay away from all of that!

A message from the Lord!

Do what's right. Don't provoke.

Put four tassels on your cloak.

Do not laugh, it's not a joke!

A message from the Lord!

Veggie People (as a choir): Do not fight, do not cheat.

Woman: Wash your hands before you eat,

Man: There is nothing quite as sweet...

Woman 2: A message from the Lord!

Jonah: All together now.

Veggie People (as a choir): Be a friend, Say your prayers,

Heaven loves a heart that cares,

That is why he came to share a message from the Lord.

(Instrumental Break)

Veggie People: And if we follow God's commands,

There will be peace throughout the land!

We will live long and happy lives!

With our sheep, our kids, our wives!

Do what's right, Don't provoke,

Put four tassels on your cloak.

Do not laugh. it's not a joke!

A message from the Lord!

Jonah: Don't do drugs! Stay in school!

Scribe: This is quite a lot of rules

Jonah: Follow them and you're no fool-uh...

Veggie People: Follow them and you're no fool,

Jonah: Follow them and you're no fool,

All: A message from the Lord!

Jonah: Follow them and you're no fool,

All: A message from the Lord! (the lord!) A message from the Lord!
