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'd never been as struck before that hour
Suddenly appeared her figure like a flower
What is full of taste now used to be so sour
Got nothing to resist her now
I'm overpowered
Just a sudden love and oh so sweetly
She stole my heart oh so completely
I've been alone, alone, too long
I've been alone, alone, too long
Now it's gone
I must have turned pale, in a deadly shade
And my two numb legs refused to walk away
My body seemed like it had turned to clay
Moulded into this
And put in an oven for a day
Just a sudden love and oh so sweetly
She stole my heart oh so completely
I've been alone, alone, too long
I've been alone, alone, too long
Now it's gone
I couldn't see a thing, I couldn't say a word
And as she spoke the loveliest song
I ever heard
And then something I can't explain occurred
And all I knew before was gone within a blur
Just a sudden love and oh so sweetly
She stole my heart oh so completely
I've been alone, alone, too long
I've been alone, alone, too long
Now it's gone
