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.
In the morning
I will rise up shed the darkness
And bathe in your light
And I recount all
Every blessing
The words you’ve spoken
That bring me new life
I am reminded from where you have brought me
And where you have placed me for today
I won’t forget that your hand will hold me
Your love sustains me through the wait
I will wait on you, lord
I will wait on you, lord
Oh the burdens
That I’ve carried
They are heavy
Oh too heavy to hold
There’s a river
There’s a sunrise
There’s a new day
And it’s bringing new life
Bless the lord, oh my soul
And all that is within me
I will rise in his love
I’ll shout of what he’s doing
I won’t forget
All of your mercy
All of your grace
That is poured out on me
