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 remember clearly, when I received Your grace
How I prayed sincerely, as tears ran down my face
The spirit that You sent me, to open up my eyes
Seems so very distant from this world of compromise
Chorus
Jesus, fill me with Your spirit, Lord
Jesus, fill me with Your spirit, Lord
Let all creation know that I have been restored
Fill me with Your spirit, Lord
Lord I must confess my sinfulness and pride
And empty out this mess of ugliness inside
Teach me true repentance, send Your spirit, Lord
Until it's overflowing, and there's room for nothing more
Chorus
Jesus, fill me with Your spirit, Lord
Jesus, fill me with Your spirit, Lord
Let all creation know that I have been restored
Fill me with Your spirit, Lord
I can live on nothing less than all Your love and
righteousness!
Jesus, fill me with Your spirit, Lord
Fill me with Your spirit
