A 10-year-old  boy, Willie Myrick was kidnapped outside his house and held in captivity for 3 hours before being let loose in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.

The abductor allegedly enticed the boy with cash and then, when the gullible child approached the car, he grabbed him and dragged him into the car on March 31.

To the abductor's surprise the boy  started to sing a popular gospel song 'Every Praise'.

They drove around for three hours and despite the man's curses and threats the boy sang the song over and over again.

Ultimately tired with the endless singing the kidnapper  kicked the boy out of the car.

Willie said: "He opened the door and threw me out - he told me not to tell anyone."

After hearing the incredible story, the author of the song - a prominent gospel singer Hezekiah Walker - even traveled from New York to congratulate Willie personally.

"I just wanted to hug him and tell him I love him. I really believe that God spoke through me to save that young man's life."

Also the community leaders came together to warn other parents and children about the kidnapping and praise the little boy's courage and savvy.

The case is still under investigation as police have not yet tracked down the man who abducted him.
