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.
I know what lives inside
When I hide far behind
The eyes that are so bright
Wanting our worlds to coincide
I know how much it costs
To fall prey, to be one lost
But I'll give my heart wholly
Even if I fall to the lies
I'll find peace with you again
When I'm holding out my sinful hands
Delivered and captured again
Though I was living like an empty man
You're washing me, while you're leading me home again
I know the soul of me
And everything that tempts me
So I guard my heart closely
I won't be falling for the lies
‘Cause I found peace with you again
When I was holding out my sinful hands
Delivered and captured again
Though I was living like an empty man
You're still teaching me, as your leading me to the end
But the world
Would love me to believe
That it revolves around me
I can finally see
That the world
Would love to captivate
A childlike heart that aches
To fill the empty space
But I've found peace with you again
Though I'm holding out my sinful hands
Delivered and captured again
Though I was living like an empty man
You'll be washing me, as you're leading me to the end
