Did this boy's faith just save his life? The Myrick family in Atlanta is thanking God after 10-year-old Willie Myrick was kidnapped right in front of his home, then sang a gospel song until his kidnapper released him.

Willie was playing in his driveway in Atlanta on March 31 when the man lured him with cash to come close enough to grab the boy and pull him into a car.

The boy started singing the popular gospel song Every Praise by Hezekiah Walker while the the kidnapper drove around for three hours with him in the car. Willie said the man was cursing and telling him to shut up, but Willie kept on singing until the kidnapper couldn't take any more.

"He opened the door and threw me out," Willie told WXIA-TV. "He told me know to tell anyone." Willie was released unharmed in East Point.

Upon Hezekiah Walker hearing about his song being instrumental in guiding Willie to safety, Walker made a special trip from New York to Atlanta visit the boy. Willie was brought to tears at the service Walker led.

Police are still looking for clues to track down the perpetrator.
