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.
Joy to the world on a night like no other
Emmanuel God is with us
Beggars and kings, let us come and adore Him
Rest in His peace and bow before Him
Sing all ye people, the Lord almighty reigns
Sing ev'ry creature of God, come bless His name
For He is good, for He is good
He was born to conquer the grave
Light of the world, the reason for Christmas Day
Stars we have seen over deserts and oceans
The darkness was deep but never hopeless
Redemption came and His name is Jesus
From the mountains, we will shout it out
For the Lord our God, Almighty reigns
He is with us, He is with us now
For the Lord our God, Almighty reigns
Sing all ye people the Lord almighty reigns
Sing ev'ry creature of God, come bless His name
For He is good, for He is good
He was born to conquer the grave
Light of the world, the reason for Christmas
Sing all ye people, the Lord almighty reigns
Sing ev'ry creature of God, come bless His name
For He is good, for He is good
He was born to conquer the grave
Light of the world, the reason for Christmas Day
Light of the world, the reason for Christmas Day
