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 have seen You up on the hillside
Blowing in the rain
Seen Your shadow pass by my window
Coloured silver grey
I have seen You chasing the winter
Snow marks out Your way
Crystal breezes bringing the springtime
Never a day the same
O little Heaven inside me
Let me speak Your name
O little Heaven beside me
Come to heal my pain
For I won't forget
And you won't regret
Giving me your name
I have seen Your hand in the passing
Of each and every day
And the listening breathe in Your influences
Leaving each one changed
So why is Your name so hard to find?
So hard to reach?
Why can't we say?
When it's so easy children can form it
Locked somewhere inside me it remains
