Swallowed up (In the belly of the whale)

I fell asleep on a dark and starlit seaWith nothing but the cloak of God's mercy over meI come upon strange earth and a great black caveI dreamt I awoke as if buried in my graveWe've been swallowed upWe've been swallowed upDisappeared from this worldWe've been swallowed upThe bones of sailors from the north and sailors from the eastLay high in a pyre in the belly of a beastA beast should you wander in its path upon your ship and your flesh he'll supYou'll disappear from this world until you've been swallowed upWe've been swallowed upWe've been swallowed upDisappeared from this worldWe've been swallowed upWe trusted our skills and our good sailsOur faith that with God the righteous in this world prevailBut we've been swallowed upWe've been swallowed upDisappeared from this worldWe've been swallowed upWe've been swallowed upWe've been swallowed upDisappeared from this worldWe've been swallowed up
