Lyrics
Tell me a story 'bout the prophets past And how their teachings last today Tell me a tale of how the good will prevail And how the lessons paved our way Tell me a story Many years went by as Prophet Nuh would cry Oh my people won't you follow the way Just know Allah is one and when my ship is done Oh won't you join me as we sail away Before the skies swell up and the raindrops drop We'll gather animals two by two And when the earth is cleansed and the showers end We'll start all over just me and you Tell me a story A long time ago people worshipped the stars Prayed to the moon and the idols of stone He showed a better way never to go astray And that Allah will never leave him alone They said Ibrahim oh what do you mean How could an idol of stone have his way He smiled back and said Allah is my friend And so their fire couldn't burn him away Tell me a story Have you heard of a man who rode a river through the land Of the Pharaoh and was meant to lead His people to truth and the power of proof Into a land where they'd be free But Pharaoh followed in rage and with his soldiers he staged A plan to destroy them all But Musa parted the sea for his people to flee And Pharaoh's only goal was his fall Tell me a story The virgin birth of a baby by his mother Mary's Very voice was a sign to hear He was given the power to heal the blind And the hope for those who lived in fear Or Isa you're dead is evil let him be said As they tried to end him once and for all But Allah's love is strong he made sure it won't be long Till he returns to save us all Tell me a story Read in the name of your lord he was called Cast out of his town he would not fit their mold With open arms and an open heart Medina's welcome was a start Peace be upon him the angel said His name was Muhammad Sallallahu alayhi wasallam A cure for this world of greed Sallallahu alayhi wasallam He shed tears for you and me The final message to mankind To free yourself, your heart and your mind Words of Allah he would recite For a world in need of light Tell me a story about the prophet's past And how their teachings last today
