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.
New Year Eve, and this is what I see
Staring at these faces staring back at me
Sometimes insecure, but I know
Your love is pure
I am broken--mend me
Over backwards--bending
For the love you're sending
All the places that I've been
Still I can't escape this life of sin
What I want to do I don't do
And what I do I don't want to do
Days have come and days have gone
And still I'm under siege
Everyday decisions made for which
Side to alleige
Sometimes I just sit and cry for
Words I can't erase
All I have in this world is the
Promise of your grace
...You made the universe, and
You can mend me
