Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This is my second tab, hope you're blessed by it. Its lyrics are very challenging,
both to the performer and the listener. Fun fact: this song is actually based on
"Rescue the Perishing" by Fanny J. Crosby, a 1869 hymn. I made this because
I could not find the chords for this song anywhere. I was only able to find the
first two chords and sounded the rest out. Therefore, it's very possible that
there are mistakes, I welcome good corrections.
Please leave comments/suggestions/rude comments at the bottom.
