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.
Who was there when I first opened up my eyes?
And who was there to heal the hurt
when I first learned to ride?
and who would never miss a game?
celebrate me won or loss?
yes my Father was
When adolescent years had come who helped me understand?
and when the winning point was scored
who in victory raised my hand?
and when I hung my head in shame
who was there to lift it up?
yes my Father was
my Heavenly Father has always been there
for my earthly one was gone yeah
He's taken care of me
and I only want to be just like Him
Now that I'm a full grown man
who can wipe my tears away?
and who's on the other end
when I lift my heart to pray?
and who's always by my side
to help me make it through?
yes my Father is
my Heavenly Father is
yes he is
yes my Father is
