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.
When you're down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter spring summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there yeah yeah
You've got a friend
If the sky above you
Should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon I will be knocking at your door
You just call out my name and
You know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter spring summer or fall
All you have to do is call, and I'll be there
Hey ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold
They'll hurt you and desert you
Well, they'll take your soul if you let them
But don't you let them
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there yeah yeah
You've got a friend
You've got a friend
You've got a friend
You've got a friend
You've got a friend
