Songs That Celebrate

1. I think the relationship between humans and gods found in the praise songs is that the gods create the world in which the humans live. But I also think that the gods are trying to inform humans about death and that it will come some day and that there is life after death.

2. I think the tone of the praise songs are that of some kind of worship. The songs also seem to have a slow pace and show that the creation of the world is celebrated.

3. I like Oshun, the praise song that talks of the river goddess. I like that this praise song because it talks of her wisdom in which is shared. It also says that she is a cure and good for all. It talks of the beautiful water which is helpful to every person and all of nature.
