Traditional Spiritual.One of the most meaningful and emotional genres of American music and folk songs is the spiritual, created by slaves during their days and nights of persecution on plantations in the American South prior to the Civil War. The words convey heartache and misery over the loss of freedom, family, and home; yet they also highlight the hopes and dreams that slaves could overcome these hardships and gain freedom, either through emancipation, or when they leave this world and find peace in Heaven. The text of Ive Been in the Storm So Long tells a story of someone who has been through many trials and wishes desperately that the burdens of slavery could be lessened or lifted for even a small amount of time. The words express a heartfelt desire to communicate and reunite with family and loved ones. In the end, the singer rejoices in the fact that these troubles will end when he or she finally reaches Heaven.One of the most meaningful and emotional genres of American music and folk songs is the spiritual, created by slaves during their days and nights of persecution on plantations in the American South prior to the Civil War.
