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.
Slow down, take time
Breath in, he said
He'd reveal what's to come
The thoughts in his mind
Always higher than mine
He'll reveal all to come
Take courage, my heart
Stay steadfast, my soul
He's in the waiting
He's in the waiting
Hold on to your hope
As your triumph unfold
He's never-failing
He's never-failing
Sing praise, my soul
Find strength in joy
Let his words lead you on
Do not forget his great faithfulness
He'll finish all he's begun
And you who hold the stars
Who call them each by name
Will surely keep your promise to me
That I will rise in your victory
