Amazing Grace: The History of the Slave Scale ( A história da escala dos escravos)

Fiquei muito contente com a explicação sobre a história da canção Amazing Grace, escrita por  )John Newton . Um detalhe muito interessante, essa canção cita a melodia como desconhecida e não de autoria do John Newton. Logo, como este era capitão ou a pessoa que conduzia o navio com os escravos. Já podemos saber de onde ele ouviu a melodia. Pois este hino foi escrito usando a escala pentatônica dos negros(blues scale) ou escala cantada pelos escravos africanos na America .

A escravidão vivida por este povo(e não somente os negros, mas de nativos ou índios dos povos que foram conquistados na America em geral ) , foi uma das coisas mais  horríveis que aconteceu no cenário da historia da humanidade. Mas...

Deus sempre tem uma saída para as coisas!

Song : you are not alone by Julio Correa

 you are not alone

(piano and voice)

you are not alone
and you don’t have to be afraid
for nothing
for nothing

(intro, instrumental)
(drums)

Jesus promised
he will never be apart from us
He pleads for us
in the presence of the Almight God
remember what he said
the Father takes care
Of all the birds of the air
He has total control

(chorus)
If the Lord is with us
we shall not fear
shall not fear
shall not fear...no more no more

Song : Where are you going? by Julio Correa

Where are you going?

#Verse 1
Hey, you going to work
Hey, you leaving your home
You, walking alone

Hey you, you’ve lost your own way.
You, who also lost your faith
You, where are you going to?

#bridge
Who are you?
Where are you going to? x2

#chorus

Don’t leave this Earth
Without ask youself
who am I? and where am I going (to)
This life is short
But it does not end here
But it does not end here
(I believe in another home)

Try to find the purpose

For your life
I hope one day you notice
That you have a soul

#Verse2

Hey, you! Listen this song
You, that look like strong
you, where are you going to?

Hey you, that lost your own way

You, that lost your faith
You, where are you going to?

Song : Hear my voice by Julio Correa

Hear my voice

I live in a world, where shadows are around me
shadows of death, shadows of fear
shadows from my sins

In my distress, I called to the Lord
I cried out to my God
I cried out to my God for help, for help

Hear my voice, Almighty God
When I call for You
I need your mercy 3x

From his temple He heard my voice
He rescued me
He delighted in me, Oh

Thank you Lord, Almighty God
Your name will be
Exalted forever
