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.
The sun is rising and once again
The morning finds me on my knees
On the days horizon I have got
An invitation to see the king
Far away from the worries that weigh me down
I am taken to holy ground
To the place where mercy and love abounds
There in the midst of His throne
I know in my heart this is where I belong
CHORUS:
Where the king and I go walking together
Side by side in a heavenly place
Unaware of time in the land of forever
There is his kingdom of grace
Nobody but the king and I
The pace of living somehow can make
The strongest man grow weak at times
But I'll never give in this race I'm running
Leaves no room for compromise
So I set my course for the path of faith
On my knees I'm ready to pray
It is then and there that I'm caught away
Into the midst of his throne
I know in my heart this is where I belong
CHORUS
So I set my course for the path of faith
On my knees I'm ready to pray
It is then and there that I'm caught away
Into the midst of his throne
I know in my heart this is where I belong
CHORUS
