La música cristiana es de origen judío: la liturgia musical de la sinagoga, en particular el canto psalmódico de los judíos como unidad poética musical, fue un legado preciado transmitido del Israel antiguo al cristianismo primitivo, como forma de manifestar tanto a nivel personal como comunitario las creencias religiosas y la fe en Dios.
There ain't nothin' that ain't in my way
An like the fool I am for my own gain I pray
You say you found, a way back inside my closet
Ol' bones upon bones an joints upon sockets
Yep yey
I am an honest man when I ain't lying
I am a living man when I commence to dyin'
Bring it down bring it down on me
Put me on a high horse so everyone can see
Then kick the nag an leave me be
Listen good people I'll tell you some truth
I got no reason to lie to you
I'm as clean as a hounds tooth
I still love the woman of my youth
The Lord on my behalf doth pray
He's with me even in harm's way
