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.
(Verse)
Once and for all, the father’s love
He is the light in the darkness
He took on flesh and took our place
The weight of the world on his shoulders
The weight of the world on his shoulders
(Chorus)
We believe our god is Jesus
We believe that he is lord
We believe that he has saved us
From sin and death once and for all
(Verse)
Once and for all, our debt is paid,
There on the cross it is finished!
The lamb of god for us was slain
Up from the grave he is risen,
Up from the grave he is risen!
(Chorus)
We believe our god is Jesus
We believe that he is lord
We believe that he has saved us
From sin and death once and for all
(Bridge x2)
Jesus, Jesus, god from god, light from light, you are our salvation
Jesus, Jesus, god from god, light from light, your kingdom is forever
(Chorus x2)
We believe our god is Jesus
We believe that he is lord
We believe that he has saved us
From sin and death once and for all
From sin and death once and for all
Once and for all
(Bridge)
Jesus, Jesus, god from god, light from light, you are our salvation
Jesus, Jesus, god from god, light from light, your kingdom is forever
We believe, we believe
(Chorus)
We believe our god is Jesus
We believe that he is lord
We believe that he has saved us
From sin and death once and for all
From sin and death once and for all
