When I was 33 years old, I was attending an inaugural function of a Mangroves project at Ranong, Thailand.Scientists from over 20 countries participated in the program arranged in a star Hotel. Each member was introduced by the Chief to the participants.
Followed by the introduction, the participants should sing a song of his / her choice for entertaining the gathering.My turn had arrived. I stood up and told, “I don’t know any song”.The gathering gave me tips by telling many Hindi cinema songs, but in vain.
At last I told about a song,which was taught to me when I attended the Sunday school .They gave me permission. The song I sang was given below :
“O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder “
When I was singing the line ,”Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee” in high pitch ,the Spirit of the Living God helped me to glorify His name and His name alone. The musician also quickly picked up the tune and helped me a lot. Two people appreciated my song & singing.One was a Senior Scientist with motherly affection and another one was a T. V. Singer.
“You have made my glory to sing unto You and girded me with gladness “.(After Psalm 30:11-Based on Tamil Version). Amen and Amen.
