A Song: Jesus Blood Was the Ransom Paid
Singing and composing hymns and other songs have been part of my life since my teenage days

Composer's Foreword
Many youths of this generation, or last generation called Z - Generation often times when discussing with them used to say they used to wonder how the state of the world was when there was neither Internet nor telephone and other advancements we are seeing today. They prayerfully add that they "thank God" (for those who believe in God) and their stars (for those who are free minded) that they were not begotten during those periods because it would be boring without these social media they are seeing now which make the world lively.
Looking at technological innovations through their eyes one cannot but say, the technological changes have really helped some people who would have been repressed, suppressed and oppressed by the elites as it was before.
Many talents would have been buried without being celebrated nor known by those who have links to the crème-de-la-creme in the society, Africa.
Because of this innovations I can as well share my thoughts without fear or favor, share my compositions and believed it would be read all over the world.
I look forward to people joining me in singing this composed song.
The tune I have used has been recorded on YouTube and shared here for the use of all, yea for needful amendments too.
Thanks.
Composed Song
Leader:
The devil in his deceptions/3x has come
To lead my heart astray
Even by his many lies
And I have gone astray from the Lord
Chorus
Leader
Jesus blood is the ransom paid/3x for me
Earlier on I was even
In the cage of the devil
Jesus came and rescued me from the cage
Chorus
Leader:
When I was brokenhearted/3x and despaired
And my mood disordered
Overwhelmed by pain at heart
Yea i have received hope in Christ's word
Chorus
Leader
When am wearied of the world/3x yea frustrated
When suicidal thoughts
Fill all fibres of my being
Christ's Angel appear'd to strengthen me
Chorus
Leader
The pain that fills my heart/3x in sadness
Which made me cry day and night
Also made me lethargic
Thy word has delivered my soul
Chorus
Leader
When I was smitten down/3x by enemies
And lost all that i have
Having no pow'r of my own
Christ Jesus brought me back to my feet
Chorus
Leader
Alleluiah to my God/3x an' Redeemer
God the Father of Christ
Yea the father of all Grace
I 'll forever bless and love you
Chorus
