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.
Looking back across the years
We've had joy, we've had tears
Hand in hand we've run the race
Gratitude for your grace
Thank you every time you've led us through
Always you are the fire in me
The years go by and still I fly
On wings like eagle's
You take me high where angels cry
Glory forever!
Looking back we had a dream
History we will make
Let the broken let the strong
Live our lives as a song
Thank you you're the one who keeps it true
Always you are the fire in me
