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.
SEYMOUR: Seymour the Seagull here, with a bird's-eye view of another sunny Sunday morning in the twin island republic of Yeahman & Noman. With much of the staff on a holiday of their own this week, the beach resort management is left with no other option but to bring in a rag-tag crew of unconventional teachers to lead the children.
Let's drop in on 'em
YOUTH DIRECTOR: All right kids, attention! Quiet please. Attention! Line up, line up. Make a straight line. Since we're a bit short staffed today, I have had to make some creative staffing decisions. Today we have a raggamuffin Sunday school teaching crew
Kids: Hello teachers!
SEYMOUR: And this vagabond crew consists of Nigel the Iguana
NIGEL: Wait now man, I'm a chameleon!
SEYMOUR: Nigel the Iguana
NIGEL: Cha!
SEYMOUR: Calypso the singing coconut
CALYPSO: (sings) Calypso sweet, Calypso sweet, cause Calypso the Coconut he is Calypso sweet
(Repeat)
That sounds good!
SEYMOUR: Excuse me, can we keep these introductions a little bit shorter?
CALYPSO: Sorry man
SEYMOUR: And Manu the know-it-all Mango
MANU: At your service
Random voices: Whew! That guy is a bit ripe! For real. Boy I'll say! Oh man
MANU: Thank you very often. And today we are going to teach Reggae Sunday School.
