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.
There was a chasm uncrossable
There was a mountain unscalable
Even when my lost heart was unlovable
You spread Your arms out
You laid Your life down for me
Now I'm set free
Now my heart sings
Because of Your love
Hallelujah, I'm forgiven
The shadow has been lifted
You rescued me
Because of Your love
I can stand with You forever
In the presence of my Saviour
Alive and free
Because of Your love
Because of Your love
Where there were years of drought
Now overflow
Where there was guilt and shame
Now joys untold
When my heart was prodigal
And the lies were deafening
Your love was a whisper
Your love kept whispering to me
That I am Yours
And You are mine
There is, no greater love
There is, no higher love than this
Your great love
There is, no sweeter name
Nothing, can separate us from
Your great love
There is, no greater love
There is, no higher love than this
Your great love
Because of Your love
Hallelujah, I'm forgiven
The shadow has been lifted
You rescued me
Because of Your love
I can stand with You forever
In the presence of my Saviour
Alive and free
Because of Your love
No greater love than this
Your great love
Because of Your love
No higher love than this
Your great love
There is, no sweeter name
Nothing, can separate us from
Your great love
