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.
Looking out at this green sea
For a moment, standing here
With the sunset on your shoulders
The world seemed to stand still
But what does it mean? What does it mean?
It’s easy as it seems
But nothing at all, nothing at all
Is so easy as it seems right now
Life has changed completely
Since your words flew with the wind
What did they mean? What did they mean?
Is everything so close to you?
And nothing at all, nothing at all
Is so easy as it seems
But now it sounds, now it sounds
Easy as it can be
Right now the whole ocean is in your eyes
You faced a bitter time
Embraced a bitter life
And you even wished to die
But now you thank this, stay here
And even pray to live another night
