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.
Would it kill you to breathe easy?
Only 17 miles lay between you and me
I could make it if I had to
I don't break easily
You got my council, thick as thieves
If there's a crime, we'll keep it secret
For there's only trace amounts left in your blood
You may be a sinner
But you may be justified
Just keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I'll make it right
Will it kill me to breathe?
Not as easy as you think it is
Between you and me,
I could fake it if I have to
I don't break easily
I need your council, thick as thieves
I have no crime to keep a secret
It was hers, it was not mine
Well I may be a sinner,
But it wasn't me this time
Just keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I'll make it right
Well, listen to yourself
There is a hemmorage in your mouth
It won't stop bleeding
Well, you may be the trigger
I will hold the smoking gun
You'll get away clean
I'll keep your secrets 'til the grave has swallowed me
And I will never tell a tortured soul there burning by my side
That I am a sinner
I am a savior
I am a lie
So keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I'll make it right
