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.
Lord I am tired
I'm losing sleep
I stuggle with breathing
It overwhelms me
Lord I am thirsty
I don't want to eat
My body is aching
For peace
I'd like to run again
Or even just walk
Or just see the ocean
One more time
Lord I look forward
To sit at your feet
I know what you'll do for me when we meet
(chorus)
I can feel your healing oil
Running down my brow
I wouldn't trade another lifetime
For how I feel right now
(repeat chorus)
Lord I am weary
I know that you're near
Take care of my family
While we're apart
And I thank you for giving me
This life that I've had
Now I look for the comfort
Of your arms
