Video: Abducted child set free after annoying his kidnapper by SINGING gospel songs

Youngster Willie Myrick was snatched outside his house in Atlanta, Georgia and taken for three-hours before being let loose

A child was saved from abduction after annoying his kidnapper with a gospel song so much he was let go.

Youngster Willie Myrick was snatched outside his house in Atlanta, Georgia and bundled into a car for three hours.

He had apparently been enticed to the vehicle with the promise of cash, before being taken by a man who is now the subject of police investigations.

But his ordeal was cut short because he refused to stop singing a popular gospel song.

Willie sang Every Praise over and over, annoying the driver of the car to such a degree he was forced to let him go.

Lyrics to the song include "Sing hallelujah to our God, Glory hallelujah is due our God, every praise every praise is to our God."

The 10-year-old told WXIA-TV: "He opened the door and threw me out - he told me not to tell anyone."
