Pass Me Not O Gentle Savior (Malayalam Version)
Original Lyrics and Music - Fanny Crosby
Malayalam Lyrics - Volbricht Nagel
This is a true story below
There was a very young boy who used to sweep and mop the floors of a church in India. He started doing this when he was 11 years old. As the years went by, he got more tasks, like doing laundry for the church guests, washing dishes in the church kitchen etc. After he completed High School, one of his relatives promised him higher education in the USA. He was happy to hear this and was looking forward to it but since it was an expensive affair, the promise was broken. The next year, he applied to a local college but they rejected him. With an uncertain future ahead, he decided to step into computer school though it was more expensive than regular college. After he finished his education in Computer School, he applied at 12 different companies and all 12 were rejected. He was not sure what to do with his life. He worked low paying jobs as a store salesperson for a few years. He went through very difficult times financially and emotionally. There were times that he went hungry because he could not afford to buy lunch. There were times when he used to walk as he could not afford the bus fare. But spirtually he continued to trust God and not give up hope. There were times when he felt lonely and rejected but he used to hum the lines of this song as his prayer, "Pass me not O Gentle Savior, Hear my humble cry".
A few years later, he found a different job. This was not a high paying job either. He was wondering why he never could find a decent job even though he went to computer school. This job called for more cleaning, sweeping and mopping. He remembered the days when he used to clean and mop the church from when he was little. As he used to push the mop, the same song words used to ring in his head and he used to hum the tune hoping that God will bring about a change in his life. A few years down the road, God began to raise him one step at a time and he came to a position that was not in his wildest dreams. Matthew 10:42 proved to be right in his life.

Very well sung to fit the situation. Just an observation, a lit more emphasis on the video would have produced a story twist. Jen you have an excellent voicegood control on lower notes when sung. Overall an excellent job. B Blessed in Jesus. Keep the fire on.
