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'm safe and sound, serene and calm
Whenever i'm here, i know you're near me
My secret place, where i escape
From all the cares of this race
Because of your grace
Joy fills my heart
Peace rules and reigns there
Nothing but love overflows
And your will clearly shown
When i'm alone in the presence of you
Wisdom is served and life preserved
From all your words
That you speak lord
Power displayed and weakness fade
Your greatness is known and all fears erased
Because of your great
Joy fills my heart
Peace rules and reigns there
Nothing but love overflows
And your will clearly shown
When i'm alone in the presence of you
When i'm alone with you
My soul learns worship
In spirit and in truth
For the glory of your name
Joy fills my heart
Peace rules and reigns there
Nothing but love overflows
And your will clearly shown
When i'm alone in the presence of you
I'm happy when i'm alone in the presence of you
When i'm alone in the presence of you…
