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.
Close to you
When I'm close to you
So close to you ah
I come and I lay down my burdens
I know that I do not deserve it
But You took it all with Your purchase
So God I will search for Your purpose
I just wanna live for Your service
And I don't mean just on the surface, no
But I know I don't do it perfect
So I come to You when I'm hurtin'
I have this pain
You alleviate it
I call on Your name
It's eliminated
And every weight that I hold to
It dissipates when I'm close to
You
Every weight that I hold to
It dissipates when I'm close to
You
Everything that I hold to
It levitates when I'm close to You
Close to You
When I'm close to you (yeah) ah
(Close to you)
I've counted up the cost, I know
I cannot do it on my own
So Father I approach Your throne
Acknowledge You're my only hope
I give You my anxiety
And all the worry that's inside of me
In You alone I'm findin' peace
In You alone my mind's at ease
I have this pain
You alleviate it
I call on Your name
It's eliminated
And every weight that I hold to
It dissipates when I'm close to
I have this pain
You alleviate it
I call on Your name
It's eliminated
And every weight that I hold to
It dissipates when I'm close to
You
Every weight that I hold to (every weight)
It dissipates when I'm close to
You
Everything that I hold to
It levitates when I'm close to You
Ah, ah
