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 the fall you were there
Grace began before I was aware
A shame too great for me to hide
Covered now because of Jesus Christ
I can’t believe
The price you paid for me
What you did not owe
So that I could know you
How can it be
You chose someone like me
To declare your praise
For the glory of your name
To the one who gave it all
I belong with all my heart and soul
And every gain I count as loss
When I survey the wonder of the cross
I can’t believe
The price you paid for me
What you did not owe
So that I could know you
How can it be
You chose someone like me
To declare your praise
For the glory of your name
You gave your life upon a cross
To make your home within my heart
Oh what a faithful God you are
Your praise forever in my heart
I can’t believe
The price you paid for me
What you did not owe
So that I could know you
How can it be
You chose someone like me
To declare your praise
For the glory of your name
You gave your life upon a cross
To make your home within my heart
Oh what a faithful God you are
Your praise forever in my heart
