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.
You are not a distant God
You are not who they say you are
That has never been your heart
You are not hiding
Like a father to a wounded child
You’re present in the peace and in the wild
Not a second I would live this life
Without you beside me
‘Cause even when the road is long
Even in the heat of battle
Even when the lights go out
You are there
You are not a distant God
And we are not moving miles apart
The maker of the sea and stars is standing beside me
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Love has found me
