Samuel Kaboo Morris biography,

Prince Kaboo was the son of a chief of the

Kru tribe in Liberia, Africa.

When he was young, he was captured

VERSE 1

By the Grebo tribe, who used him

As a pawn to extract tribute

From the Kru tribe. Whenever they defaulted,

Kaboo was smeared with honey

CHORUS

And left for the ants to eat him alive.

The tortures made Kaboo hopeless,

And he was on the verge of death.

Biography:

CHORUS (Repeat)

Birth : 1872

Homeland : Africa

Place of Vision : Africa

VERSE 2

One night, when he was about to be whipped,

There was a blinding flash of light,

And he heard, “Kaboo, flee!” Immediately he

Ran into the jungle and then traveled day

CHORUS (Repeat)

And night to reach Monrovia.

Samuel Morris ministry in Africa

In Monrovia, Kaboo made his living painting

The houses for a couple of years.

BRIDGE

One day, he attended a local church

And heard a missionary speaking about the

Conversion of Saul through a blinding flash

Of light. Astonished by the similarity

CHORUS (Repeat)

To his own story, Kaboo shouted,

“I have seen that light!” He then accepted

Christ as his savior and was rechristened

As Samuel Morris after his Baptism.

VERSE 3

Since then, Morris displayed a fervent desire

To know more about Christ. On the suggestion

Of a missionary, he set out for America

And reached New York at 18.

CHORUS (Repeat)

There, with the help of Stephen Merritt,

He got enrolled in Taylor University,

Indiana. His sublime yet simple faith

And miraculous story brought revival

VERSE 4

To the campus and the surrounding community.

Morris was particularly known

For his prayer life. At night,

He could be heard in his room praying,

CHORUS (Repeat)

Which he simply called,

‘talking to my Father.’ He took every

Opportunity to witness to others,

But his heart yearned to take the gospel

VERSE 5

To his own people. However,

When he was just 21, he contracted a severe

Cold, and he left for his heavenly abode.

His death inspired his fellow students

CHORUS (Repeat)

To serve as missionaries to Africa

On his behalf, fulfilling his dream of one

Day returning to minister to his own people.

Beloved, how often do you talk to your Heavenly Father

VERSE 6

Take away from the article

“Lord, help me communicate with You more

Often and grow stronger in my personal

Relationship with You. Amen!”

CHORUS (Repeat)

Word of Prayer
