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.
Up on the mountain
Or down in the valley low
You have my heart
And this I know, with my hand in yours
You will lead me over the mountain
Through the valley to your fountains that never run dry
You have won my heart
You have won my heart
You have won my heart
Through every trial and tribulation
On this journey of my soul
Come be the vision that holds
My eyes up to your throne
