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.
I will not fade
I won't let my light go out
I will not masquerade
I know who i am, and what my purpose is all about
(chorus)
For all these years
I've traveled on
And you have cheered,
Shine on, shine on
What i am
And who i am
Is never gonna change
The hits will come
But i will not be swayed
I've always been
What i am
The world can clearly see
I won't fade away
There is no life
That i would rather live
I will continue on
Until you take me home
(chorus)
I don't run
When stormy skies appear, i pray
Oh the power
I possess when skies turn black
I still burn
The light's on
What i am
And who i am
Is never gonna change
The hits will come
But i will not be swayed
I've always been
What i am
The world can clearly see
I won't fade away
What i am
And who i am
Is never gonna change
The hits will come
But i will not be swayed
I've always been
What i am
The world can clearly see
I won't fade away
What i am...
