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.
Joy of my desire, all consuming fire
Lord of glory, rose of sharon
Rare and sweet
You are now my peace,
Comforter and friend,
Wonderful, so beautiful,
You are to me
I worship you in spirit and in truth
I worship you in spirit and in truth
There will never be a friend as dear to me,
As you
Lord, you are more precious than silver
Lord, you are more costly than gold
Lord, you are more beautiful than diamonds,
And nothing I desire compares with you
And nothing I desire compares with you
Joy of my desire, all consuming fire
Lord of glory, rose of sharon
Rare and sweet
You are now my peace
Comforter and friend
Wonderful, so beautiful,
You are to me
I worship you in spirit and in truth.
I worship you in spirit and in truth.
There will never be a friend as dear to me,
As you.
Lord, you are more precious than silver
