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 was made in the hard times
That pain is a goldmine
It'll make a poor fool wise, oh, yeah
It got real in the hard times
It hurt bad but I don't mind
That hurt'll make a heart kind
I believe that I'm where You want me
I can see from the place You brought me
There's life in the light
Of what the hard times taught me
Though it didn't go the way I planned it
I learned how to live open-handed
And a brand new day with
What the hard times taught me
Woo-hoo, ooh-ooh
Mmh...
