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 have a song that the angels can't sing
You saved my weary soul from all my sin
And pain and suffering
A song of the redeemed
I once was lost but You found me
Oh, I have a song that the angels can't sing
I have a song that the angels can't sing
You stepped out of Your throne all wrapped in flesh
You made Yourself like me
A song of righteousness I couldn't reach 'til You reached me
Oh, I have a song that the angels can't sing
Oh, glory hallelujah to the Lamb that was slain
I cannot hold it in
You've given me a brand new name
A song of my deliverance
You've broken all my chains and I am free
Oh, I have a song the angels can't sing
I have a song that the angels can't sing
I was sentenced to a life in chains
No hope for being free
You opened up the door and said
Come on and follow me
Now I have a song that the angels can't sing
I have a song that the angels can't sing
It goes, Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see
Now I have a song that the angels can't sing
Oh, I have a song that the angels can't sing
Now I have a song that the angels can't sing
Oh, I have a song the angels can't sing
Oh, I have a song the angels can't sing
