I remember singing this song as a child growing up in Jamaica. At that tender age, I never really knew how profound the words of this song were. However, now I’m a born again Christian, I fully understand them and they touch the core of my very soul. Thank you, Lord Jesus for rescuing me from sin!

This song was played at 10 am for the mid morning meditation on Radio Jamaica, RJR. Pat Boone's Sweet Hour Of Prayer was played for the mid day meditation. The late Rev. Cleveland Grant read inspirational poems while this song played softly in the background. This was about 30 seconds before the mid day news on RADIO JAMAICA (RJR).

I attended Saint Francis Seraphic Seminary from 1967 to 1971 in Andover, Massachusetts. I think as of c.1968 or 1969 (it could have been 1970 , perhaps) this song or maybe even a hymn (?) was very often a part of our Masses in the earlier part of the day... I remember it very well and, of course, was most fond of it. This was more than 50-odd years ago. I listened to it, here, but I don't remember hearing the verses at all (?). We usually used guitars but occasionally I played it on the electronically-powered chapel organ. The seminary, saddly, do es not exist any more. I think it was torn down about 6 or 7 years ago?? The old cemetary still exists - so I saw in recent photos of the area. I know a film was made about this at the time...😢😢😢😬😬😬😢😢😢😠😠😠

We sure went Globally with Maria Alonzo! This Song means God Almighty, the Creator of our wonderful Universe, the Oceans, the Clockworks of the Moon, Sun, Thunderstorm, fruits, flowers, awesome Animals, just name it! Where was our Prophet Messiah Jesus PBUH again? I will tell you though, with total Due Respect, and search for the truth, ask questions. If one's FAITH is really in line with our Creator of our wonderful Universe, then know this: Almighty God Will Never be a Merciless God, suffer and Kill, to some "God", okay, then kill His young Masiah! For your Children's unborn Children's Sins (what sins again are we speaking of)⁉️ God will always be a good God to the Faithful, however, you biggest unforgivable SIN is associating anyone, and anything with God! It's okay to be lost, fooled, not being able to interpret, you are not going to hell for the preachers in their Limo's Estates globally, and etc while you take the bus. Their knowing misinterpretations is not your Sins, you already have the Faith in their Faults, so search and you shall always be forgiven.

I first heard this song when I was about 4 years old in Jamaica. I'm now 40. I was the first religious song I learnt hearing the soloist and the choir warmed my heart with the steel pans in the background. I didn't even knew what steel pans were until later down I was introduced to what made such beautiful music, thanks to "Hear O Lord" for arousing my curiosity. This song was the first song I knew how to play on the organ and the first song I knew how to play on the steel pans. lets just say it has inspired me to learn the pans and its my favorite hymn.
