Songs that Celebrate

3. The relationship between humans and gods in the poems are the both heal, protect, help in some way or form. The exsist no matter what and they are very loving. Also they love to dance.

4. There seems to be a positive tone or a good tone towards the various praise songs. In the last poem, it describes how the river goddess heals what the doctor cannot, and feeds honey to the children, also describing how beautiful she is.

5. The praise song I find most appealing is Oshun. This praise song talks about how people call on her, she replies with wisdom. She helps the sick, help the ones in fear, How every one looks up to her and they count on her to get them where they need to be.
