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.
Stir in us to stand
Among the shifting sands
At Your Word we rise and prophesy
Let the weak say: I am strong
Let us sing a victory song
To the King of kings, Jesus Christ
Let Your authority rise in me, break every stronghold
No weapon formed could wage war against Your throne
Now everything
Must bow its knee
To the King of kings and Your authority
And when I speak
Darkness must flee
You have given me Your authority
So I am not afraid of the mountain in my way
When I speak it will begin to shake
Let Your authority rise in me, break every stronghold
No weapon formed could wage war against Your throne
Now everything
Must bow its knee
To the King of kings and Your authority
And when I speak
Darkness must flee
You have given me Your authority
Every promise You have spoken
I receive, I receive
Windows of heaven are wide open
Over me, over me
Every promise You have spoken
I receive, I receive
Windows of heaven are wide open
Over me, over me
Let Your authority rise in me, break every stronghold
No weapon formed could wage war against Your throne
Now everything
Must bow its knee
To the King of kings and Your authority
And when I speak
Darkness must flee
You have given me Your authority
