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.
You will be our God and we will be your people
You have made this covenant with us
There's nowhere we could run that we could escape you
We cannot break your love
Your lovingkindness, your long-suffering
And your faithfulness in your love for me
Unconditional, steadfast, loyal, true
You are faithful in your love for me
Immovable Hesed is our firm foundation
A love securely bound in covenant
You've sealed it with your blood
And though we pull against it
We cannot break your love
You are faithful in your love for me
