the following questions:
a. What is the time signature of the song?
b. What kind of texture is used in the song?
c. What is the form of the song You are my Hiding Place?​

Answer 1

a. The downbeat is the first beat of each measure in a song. Where it hits when counting the beats of a song depends on the time signature. For example, in the standard 4/4 time signature, the downbeat is the first beat out of every set of four beats. In 3/4, it is the first beat in every set of three beats.
