    I know many will still make mockery because of me and my situation once more. Alot of people here don't know me, but have a very negative impression of me. I have not post here for day because of the fear of people's reactions. Today I came across a song. It seems it is a very old song. It is my first time listening to it and please kindly permit me to share. It actually soften my heart and release me of some pain.

    THE OLD RUGGED CROSS

    On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross
    The emblem of suffering and shame
    And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
    For a world of lost sinners was slain
    So I'll cherish the old rugged cross (rugged cross)
    Till my trophies at last I lay down
    I will cling to the old rugged cross
    And exchange it some day for a crown
    To the old rugged cross I will ever be true
    It's shame and reproach gladly bear
    Then he'll call me some day to my home far away
    Where his glory forever I'll share
    And I'll cherish the old rugged cross (rugged cross)
    Till my trophies at last I lay down
    And I will cling to the old rugged cross
    And exchange it some day for a crown
    I will cling to the old rugged cross
    And exchange it some day for a crown

    I know this song and as a song leader for over 35 years, I've led it many time and when I sing it, it brings tears to my eyes and touches my heart, because my dear Mother, who is gone to her long sought home, this was her favorite song... Brother Glen:)

    Thank you for you kind gesture. I don't think I can receive any money now. The police resend my identification document. If anyone here is from Cameroon. The person can visit me at the Efoulan police.

    If it cannot be possible, I deeply appreciate your effort and thank you so much. They are not asking for money, they just keep us here to do their investigation. If someone can visit with food instead of money, it will be better. If you bring money, no one will gave me.
