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.
Lay down your burdens
And I will carry you
I will carry you my child
Cause I can walk on water
Calm a restless sea
I've done a thousand things, you've never done
I'm here watching
While you struggle on your own
Call my name, I'll come
Lay down your burdens
And I will carry you
I will carry you my child
I give vision to the blind
I can raise the dead
I've seen a darker side of hell
And I've returned
I've seen these sleepless nights
I've watched every tear you cry
I know some lessons hurt to learn
Lay done your burdens
I will carry you
I will carry you, my child
