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.
Don't bother me with philosophy
Humanistic wisdom I can't see
I'm just ordinary people
With eyes on the prize
If you don't think there's a heaven
Then you ain't very wise
(Chorus)
I'm on a distant journey
That's gonna take me away
I've got my destination
I'll be there just any day
Now don't you try to stop me
Cause you'll be losing ground
I'm on a distant journey
That is glory bound
I like flying in an airplane
Going places I have never seen
But nothing can compare
With what's waiting over there
Don't stand there doubting
While I'm caught up in the air
(Chorus)
I ain't got the time to turn back now
There's nothing I desire back there anyhow
I'm on a distant journey
(Chorus)
