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.
Lonesome Pine Blue Highway
There's a path back in the mountains
To that one room house, where I was born
Even now the memories linger
My mama's smile so soft and warm
Lonesome pine I can hear you calling
Calling me back to my home
Where the fox and hound through the hills are roaming
Lonesome pine calling me home
It's been so long since I left that cabin
In search of wealth fortune and fame
Late at night when I'm alone and lonely
I still hear my daddy call my name
Someday soon I'm gonna travel
Back to the land that I love best
In the stillness of the mountains
I will find sweet peace and rest
