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.
For God so loved the world
That He gave His only Son
And whosoever believes will not perish
They shall have eternal life
I shall hold to the cross
I shall hold to God alone
For His love has salvaged me
For His love has set me free
For God so loved the world
That He gave His only Son
And whosoever believes will not perish
They shall have eternal life
I shall wait upon the Lord
I shall wait upon His word
And by His grace, I am released
And by His grace, I am redeemed
For God so loved the world
That He gave His only Son
And whosoever believes will not perish
They shall have eternal life
And by His precious blood, I have been set free
For the glory of Jesus' name
I surrender all, now to Christ alone
In Jesus, I am saved
By His precious blood, I have been set free
For the glory of Jesus' name
I surrender all, now to Christ alone
In Jesus, I am saved
For God so loved the world
That He gave His only Son
And whosoever believes will not perish
They shall have eternal life
Yes, they shall have eternal life
