Song has long been a way for people that are in dire situations to make themselves feel better. Life goes on and by singing a song you like your mind wonders away from the misery you may eel as a result of the situation you are in. The same thing applies to hard times everywhere.

Spiritual singing provided slaves with a means of expressing their faith, hope, and resistance to oppression.
