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.
We are the meek, the mild, the poor of the world, poor of the world
We always wanted to be good friends
Now we're singing melodies of love to the world, love to the world
and speaking peace to all the families
And we rock harder than you ever knew,
Yeah, we rock harder than you ever knew,
ever knew, yeah
Where is the gentleness and hope of the Lord,
hope of the Lord, in all those men who compose violence?
Now we all hope that you will sing with us, now, sing with us now.
Because we think that you will like that.
