Singing and composing hymns and other songs have been part of my life since my teenage days

Composer’s Foreword

I am not good in notes, but from the local church trainings while in choir, I have come around with this hymn using another hymn. If you know the hymn beneath, then you can join me to sing this song unto the Lord.

Simply Trusting Everyday

The Composed Song

1. Hearken Thou even ‘to me

And rescue me even right now

Thou art the One that I trust

Oh Thou God of salvation

Refrain/Chorus

Thou art my Rock and fortress

Therefore for your own name sake

Please continue to lead me

And be Thou also my guide

2. Darkness hath covered earth up

It’s empty and without form

But Thou art even the Light

That darkness can’t comprehend

Refrain/Chorus

3. Even in this world of sin

That evil act be multiplied

And that every heart be evil

Only thou canst deliver me

Refrain/Chorus

4. In the midst false brothers

In the midst of false sisters

Those who art ‘magine evil

Only thou canst deliver me

Refrain/Chorus

5. Therefore who can even save

One from wicked mother’ son

That slandereth his own sibling

If not thou my only Rock

Refrain/Chorus

6. In the midst of the hypocrites

And those who are the traitors

Those who surround my abode

Only thou canst deliver me

Refrain/Chorus

7. Oh! Save me lord Oh! Save me

Hand me not over to ‘nemy

I have even run unto thee

Save me Jesus oh my Lord

Refrain/Chorus
