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.
In God alone is my soul at rest
For my help comes from him
And He alone is my rock
My stronghold, my fortress
I stand firm
In God alone be at rest, my soul
For my hope comes from him
And He alone is my rock
My stronghold, my fortress
I stand firm
Take refuge in God all you people
Trust him at all times
And pour out your hearts
Before him
For God is our refuge
In God is my safety and my glory
He is the rock of my strength
Yes, he alone is my rock
My stronghold, my fortress
I stand firm
Take refuge in God all you people
Trust him at all times
And pour out your hearts
Before him
For God is our refuge
For God (for God) is our (is our) refuge (refuge)
For God is our refuge
