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.
Heavenly Father, I stand before You with a broken spirit on bended knees
And Lord, I'm tired of doing things my way and I surrender my all to Thee
(Ooh)
[Chorus:]
Heavenly Father this is my prayer,
Draw me nearer
I feel Your spirit
I know You are there
Draw me nearer
Heavenly Father
Guide me on this road of life with your sweet grace
Light my pathway every single day as I try to seek Your face
(Ooh)
Heavenly Father this is my prayer,
Draw me nearer
I feel Your spirit
I know You are there
Draw me nearer
[Chorus x3]
