Fantan Mojah Thanks And Praise
Octaviano Collars
Fantan Mojah's song 'Thanks & Praise' is a heartfelt ode to the divine love and blessings bestowed by Jah, a term used in Rastafarian culture to refer to God. The lyrics emphasize the importance of gratitude and praise for the continuous support and guidance provided by Jah. The repetition of the phrase 'give thanks and praise' serves as a reminder to acknowledge and appreciate the divine presence in every aspect of life, regardless of the challenges faced.
The song also highlights the significance of seeking righteousness and staying true to one's spiritual path. Fantan Mojah advises listeners to 'seek Jah first and everything will come after,' suggesting that prioritizing spiritual well-being will lead to overall fulfillment. The mention of 'Babylon disaster' refers to the corrupt and oppressive systems in society, urging individuals to avoid getting entangled in such negativity. Instead, the song calls for the elevation of righteous figures like King Selassie and Empress Menen, symbolizing the pursuit of higher moral and spiritual standards.
Furthermore, 'Thanks & Praise' underscores the enduring nature of Jah's love, contrasting it with the fickleness of human relationships. The lyrics 'people change; but Jah love remains the same' highlight the unwavering and eternal support provided by the divine. This message of constancy and reliability offers comfort and reassurance to those who may feel disheartened by the changing nature of the world around them. Through its powerful lyrics and uplifting message, 'Thanks & Praise' encourages listeners to maintain a spirit of gratitude and faith in the face of life's trials and tribulations.
