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.
Although I don’t understand, I know what’s going on, what’s going on
I wish that I was a man, but I’m not that strong, not that strong
When I see that look that’s in your eye
I wish I knew, just how to get to you
And when you dim the lights and close the door
You’ll never find here, what it is you’re looking for
If I could raise my hands I would
If I could stop the things you’re doing to me, you know I would
If I could say a word or two, I’d know id get to you
And say what I want to
And while I’m feeling the pain
I cannot run away, I want to run away
So here I am once again, Not knowing what to do, what to do
And do you smile while you are hurting me?
If I could beg I would be on my knees
Instead I stand here with my back against the wall
You’ve had your way and you took away my soul
(CHORUS)
I wish that somebody would pick me up and take me away, take me away
Because I’m lying here alone and I’m afraid
I’d rather die now than live a life like this
(CHORUS)
