1. As a pastor, I am glad @HEBobiwine is now singing Balokole Revival song "Olutalo Nga luwedde", my problem is how he is changing the meaning/message of the song. What is the impact of turning a gospel worship song into a political party song?

@martinssempa “Steal away to Jesus” & “Go down, Moses," used by Harriet Tubman to identify herself to slaves who wanted to flee north. While the primary function of the songs was religious, the same also served as socio-political protests veiled as assimilation to the white American culture.

9. "How can we sing the songs of the LORD while in a foreign/Strange land? 5 IF I FORGET you JERUSALEM, may my right hand forget its skill. 6 May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth if I do not remember you, if I do not consider Jerusalem my highest joy"
