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.
Give up, let Jesus take over
Oh, give up, let Jesus take over
Oh, give up, let Jesus take over, oh yeah
And He'll make a way for you
Well, if you've got mountains that you can't climb
Oh, and if you've got rivers that you can't cross
And if you've got valleys that you can't span
Let Jesus, let Jesus take a hold of your hand
Now if you got burdens too hard to bear
Oh, and if your load is more than your share
Kneel, kneel down, talk to Jesus because I,
I know and I know He cares
And He'll, He'll make a way, make a way for us somehow
Sing it together, sing it, let Jesus take over
Oh, give up and let Jesus take over
Oh, give it up and let Jesus take over
And He'll make a way, say He'll make a way
He'll make a way for you
