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.
Since I'm already gone, and the morning is here
A disastrous resolve to our second year Thanks for driving me out, and signing me
in Farewell for now, won't you please visit me then?
It's a new arrangement. If only you'd arrange to get me out in a week.
Now I stagger through halls, and sleep in some room
Checking off calendars, 'cause you're coming soon
Hey, they're hiding me out, and locking me in
Farewell for now, won't you please visit me then?
