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.
It was finished
On that day
Death was beaten
All darkness was slain
All his passion
Poured out like the rain upon the earth
Three days buried
They came to mourn
The stone was rolled away
The veil was torn
For he had risen
He is the king of all the earth
Hallelujah
He has conquered death
We cry holy
He reigns in all the earth
Hallelujah
He has conquered death
And he reigns
The room was shaken
The wind of god
Fire from heaven
Descended upon
The holy spirit
The power of god
For all the earth
Let the angels sing
Holy is our king
