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.
I hear you, hear you calling me with an evil eye on
I don't want your kid chin, no
And all the people you know, they're saying "go on"
But I won't be here long
And all that you need, let burn at your feet
No room in my house no more
With all the people you know, the people you know
You'll forget what you've been looking for
You let your head go
With all the people you know
I don't have no heart today
Someone came over, let it out of the cage
And you might have much else to say
But I don't have no heart today
I hear you calling me with your motor running hard
But I don't want your chicken brain
It's like the people you know, they're saying "go on"
But I won't be that way
And all that you needed, burned at your feet
And who'll do the talking now?
It's like the people you know, people you know, people you know
Oh, you'll forget what you've been looking for
You let your head go
You'll be so loud about it
I don't have no heart today
Someone came over, let it out of the cage
And you might have much else to say
But I don't have no heart today
I've never had a piece of a broken heart
Could never claim to be a breaker of any body parts
But I'd love to give it up
(Put your love into his arms and let your head go)
You'll be so loud about it
