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.

This ain't a self help song
Or another makeover song
But how He made me over
Ya digg?
[Chorus:]
I like me,
Yo, you like?
Cause I like me
Do you like me?
See I like me
Cause he likes me
God likes me
You, you don't like me? [x2]
[Verse 1: Kirk Franklin]
Short, big nose, big lips
Kinda st- st- stutter but - I never trip
Got my daddy's swagger and I walk with a limp
Got a hot wife - no need to be a pimp
Never been cute - Never been fly since I been changed got that twinkle in my eye
Got my grill fixed, now I smile when I speak
Tell me who that is?
Yo it's that Jesus freak!
[Chorus:]
I like me,
Yo, you like?
Cause I like me
Do you like me?
See I like me
Cause he likes me
God likes me
You, you don't like me? [x2]
[Verse 2: Da' T.R.U.T.H.]
I just smile - I'm so content
And I ain't even got yellow stones on my wrist
I hear the world I'm supposed to be rich
Bud I don't but that - Man, I don't go with the trends
Go the whole mile - lose or win
I hope that's the impression that the CDs give
I'm more concerned about how they see me live
Than trying to get a house on MTV cribs
[Chorus:]
I like me,
Yo, you like?
Cause I like me
Do you like me?
See I like me
Cause he likes me
God likes me
You, you don't like me? [x2]
Catch the speed, baby
[Verse 3: Kirk Franklin and Da' T.R.U.T.H.]
When the light fade - I know that you see
More than my swagger - But it's you in me
From the storefront church to the packed out floors
They want an autograph but I'd rather give 'em yours
Ya ink don't fade - the crowd wants more
The King's on stage - the final encore
Can't beleve it's - me now I'm chillin' backstage
Big nose, big lips, gon' get ya hands raised
From Texas, baby!
[Chorus:]
I like me,
Yo, you like?
Cause I like me
Do you like me?
See I like me
Cause he likes me
God likes me
Yo size 12, size 17, size 22… He likes you!
