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.
I admit that I was selfish
I was running with the wrong crowd back home
Everything the world could offer
Couldn't do a thing to save my lost soul
And my days were as dark as the night
It was hard to see you
My eyes were on me
I was in my own way
Lord, set me free
'Cause I wanna do right
But I fall short
Sometimes I don't feel
Like I'm even yours
Take this phone and this home
And the cars and the bars
And every single thing
That I don't need
Focus my eyes, lord
Till you're all I see
How could I forget you (you), oh
When you were the first love I'd known
(Oh, lord, no)
Wish that I had never left you, ooh (hmm)
'Cause I couldn't do it on my own
And my days were as dark as the night
It was hard to see you
My eyes were on me
I was in my own way
Lord, set me free
'Cause I wanna do right
But I fall short
Sometimes I don't feel
Like I'm even yours
Take this phone and this home
And the cars and the bars
And every single thing
That I don't need
Focus my eyes, lord
Till you're all I see
It was hard to see you (ooh-oh)
My eyes were on me (oh-oh)
I was in my own way
Lord, set me free (set)
'Cause I wanna do right (set me free)
But I fall short
Sometimes I don't feel
Like I'm even yours
Take this phone and this home
And the cars and the bars
And every single thing
That I don't need
Focus my eyes, lord
Help me focus my eyes, lord
Lord, help me focus my eyes, lord (focus my eyes, lord)
Till you're all I see
Oh, help me focus my eyes lord
Ayy
