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.
There are days I don't believe the words i say
Like a life that I'm not living
A song that I'm not singing but to you
There are times that I believe I'm satisfied
Like an intimate connection
Despite this bad reception with you
Because I can't afford to pay
For most of what i say
So it's a lucky thing
That the truth's public domain
And I am like a mockingbird
I've got no new song to sing
and i am like an amplifier
I just tell you what I've heard
Oh, I'm like a mockingbird
And yes, it's true that I need this more than you
Like one whose name is many
Have mercy, please don't send me away
And I'll do all I can
To be a better man
Oh I'll clean up this act
And be worse than we started
