Gospel Song Ruins the Whole Abduction

Good ending to a bad abduction:  

ATLANTA, April 23 (UPI) -- Willie Myrick, a 9-year-old boy from Atlanta, is playing in his front yard.

He notices some money on the ground, bends to pick it up.

Someone grabs him, throws him in a car, pulls away.

“He told me he didn’t want to hear a word from me,” Myrick said.

But Willie refused to be quiet. He sang.

He sang a gospel song called “Every Praise” and he did not stop singing, not when his kidnapper told him to shut up, not when he cursed him or screamed at him.

Willie would not be silenced.

Willie sang and sang for hours, until the kidnapper finally let him go.

"He opened the door and threw me out," Willie said. "He told me not to tell anyone."

I got to wondering about this song,  “Every Praise”, so I looked it up:

2) There is every chance this guy will get caught because someone hears him humming “Every Praise” over and over nonstop.

I mean, three things:
3) Now it's stuck in your head too.
