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.
Johnny is something special
He already knows how to read
He's got a stereo
He's got MTV
He knows about evolution
They teach it at school everyday
They talk about Marx and Lenin
But they don't pray
It's a shame, shame, shame
It's a shame, shame to see
Shame, shame, shame
Shame on you, shame on me
Janie has got a boyfriend
She sees him at school everyday
And when they get old enough
They're gonna be engaged
They got a situation
They can't tell their parents about
A few dollars make it easy
To work things out
It's a shame, shame, shame
It's a shame, shame to see
Shame, shame, shame
Shame on you, shame on me
It's up to you and it's up to me
We are the children of the Light
There is a time to be on our knees
And there's a time to stand and fight
It's a shame, shame, shame
Shame on you, shame on me
