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.
Joyful (yeah, haha, yeah, yeah)
Joyful (today, today)
Said I woke up to the summer shining through
Calling all my friends, asking what's the mood
Feeling a little different, I'm on something new (today, today)
I ain't gon' let no clouds get in my way
The only road I'm walking is the one I paved
Catch me sitting in the Sun, no time for shade (today, today)
Ooh, this is the day that the lord has made
Ooh, and I ain't gon' let it slip away
I'm gonna be joyful (joyful)
Yes, I am
Yes, I am
I'm gonna be joyful today (joyful, today's the day)
I'm gonna be joyful (joyful)
Ooh, I'm gonna be, I'm gonna, gonna be joyful (joyful, today, today)
Uh, I get that feeling that you get when you get new kicks
Bell ringing on the last day of singing, yеah
High-fiving everybody but we'rе outta here (today, today)
So fast, life comes and goes
Make it last, best slow your road
They don't take it, that's a choice but you gotta know
That today's the day
Ooh, this is the day that the lord has made
Ooh, and I ain't gon' let it slip away, nah
I'm gonna be joyful (joyful)
Ooh
Gonna be, I'm gonna be joyful today (joyful, today's the day)
I'm gonna be joyful (joyful)
Yes, iam
Yes, I am
I'm gonna be joyful (joyful)
Today, today
I got the joy, joy

Down in my heart
I got the joy, joy
