SCENE 20

Mother Red Fish and Father Green Fish see

Little Blue Fish coming from far away.

Blue Fish is coming!

I'll meet him halfway!

He's learned a great lesson,

and now he'll not stray.

SCENE 21

Father Green Fish swims to meet Little Blue Fish!

We prayed! God answered!

I have to prepare!

He looks very tired,

and in need of much care.

SCENE 22

Mother Red Fish, busy with preparations for a big party.

SCENE 23

Big Brother Yellow Fish, sadly watching.

Blue Fish is coming?

Why cheer his return?

Give a party for me.

I'd no lesson to learn.

SCENE 24

Mother Red Fish corrects Big Brother Yellow Fish, kindly.

For you, Yellow Fish,

we thank God everyday.

Your brother's come home!

We are happy today!

SCENE 25

Mother Red Fish, and Big Brother Yellow Fish are waiting.

The Fish home in the background.

I've been in much danger.

You were right all along.

I am pleased to be home!

This is where I belong!

Mother Red Fish is waiting.

There is much to do!

She's preparing a feast

and a pearl crown for you.

SCENE 26

The Fish family and friends at a wonderful celebration for

Little Blue Fish in Fish town.

SCENE 27

Little Blue Fish talks to his family at the party.

He is wearing his pearl crown.

Your forgiveness and welcome,

are a wonderful treat.

When things settle down,

there's someone you should meet.

 

God sent me a person

in the belly of a whale.

He too, had much sorrow

and shared quite a tale.

 

Jonah's my friend,

and he helped me to see.

My home is really

the best place for me.

SCENE 28

Back at the shore where God first talked to Jonah.

Jonah is partially entangled by a Sunflower like plant.

The fish family is present, they look concerned for Jonah.

I took God's message

to Nineveh today.

They listened, repented

and began to pray.

 God forgave them.

They agreed they were bad.

He gave them mercy,

but that makes me sad.

SCENE 29

Jonah listens to Little Blue Fish.

Little Blue Fish talking with excitement!

The Fish family is looking on, proudly.

 Search your heart, Jonah.

Don't be dismayed.

God rescued us,

when in faith, we prayed.

 

God has shown mercy.

He wants us to learn.

When we make mistakes,

it's to Him we must turn.

The End.
