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.
Like a ship that's tossed and driven, led by the angry sea
When the storms of life are raging, what is rising over me
I wonder what I have done, to make this race so hard to run
So I say to my soul, soul take courage
The Lord will make a way somehow
The Lord will make a way somehow
This Teacher's journey may not be easy, You did not say that it would be
Many times I get lonely and disheartened, and I just don't want to be bothered
Then I began to think what have I done, to make this race so hard to run
So I say to my soul, soul take courage
The Lord will make a way somehow
The Lord will make a way somehow
Somehow, somehow, somehow, somehow
Somehow, somehow, somehow, somehow
So I say to my soul, soul take courage
The Lord will make a way somehow
The Lord will make a way somehow
This Teacher's journey may not be easy, you did not say that it would be

The Lord will make a way somehow
The Lord will make a way somehow
Somehow, somehow, somehow, somehow
Somehow, somehow, somehow, somehow
So I say to my soul, soul take courage
The Lord will make a way somehow
The Lord will make a way somehow
