Title: 不要怕 只要信 (可 5：21-43)

Background:
I felt sad coz the US in suffer from a downturn for her economy. As a graduate, it's tough to find a job no matter how great and how experience u r. When I thought that i almost got a job offer from Hong Kong coz the employer want me to go back to Hong Kong in March 28, I have found that it is a joke. My family felt happy that i finally go home, I was prepared to go home, and hope to invite them to Florida Disney World to celebrate my birthday. So disappointed and depressed again after realizing it is juz sth ridiculous happen on me. I remember a quote from Matthew which said that "Don't fear, always trust Him"."不要怕 只要信" That is what I think about this hymn.

....I was very emotional recently, so i transform my negatively thought to positive energy. One day when i sit under the tree, the melody comes across in my mind, I wrote this music as a gift to my church in the US. Hope this can cheer me up

The main theme is easy to write, it takes 5 minutes to write the melody

The chorus: the 3 sequence is difficult to write coz i use the VII chord in the 3rd sequence, which the function of VII is usually to modulate. Hymn is supposed to be simple, it's so hard to bring the contour down to the original key. I led myself to a trap by using a VII chord, it's so hard to harmonize. I try and try, and finally discover the VII is vii o which is a diminished chord!!!!!!!!! I spent 2 hours on "calculating" this tricky trap constructed by myself.

Intro: Take 5 minutes to write, it's the second version, i forget the first version.
