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've given it my best shot
With everything that I've got
And still I feel I'm falling short again
I whistle while I'm working
Pretend that I'm not hurting
But deep inside I'm hiding all the pain
The more I try
The more I live a lie
It was love that saved me
You amaze me
But I was never too far from your reach
Yesterday can't hold me
You took control of me
Conviction's overturned and I am pure
And I'm not guilty any more
I feel your hand of mercy
Heal everything that's hurting
Your words so sweet cut right through my defense
You were always waiting for me
But I could never just see
If I lose myself I'll find my way to you
I know I
Don't wanna live a lie
