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.
Circle of love, halo of light
When Jesus was born, on that Christmas night
And oh what a night! That Holy night was
When Bethlehem glowed, in the circle of love
God sent his Son, His great gift to us
Salvation for all, He loved us that much
We honour and praise, that gift from above
He holds all of us, in the circle of love
Circle of love, halo of light
When Jesus was born, on that Christmas night
And oh what a night! That Holy night was
When Bethlehem glowed, in the circle of love
Happy birthday to You, we praise and we sing
We celebrate You, we are so glad You came
Happy birthday to You Jesus, let us lift You up
How thankful we are, for all of Your love
So Jesus was born, wore a crown of thorns
Gave it all up, just to save us
Circle of love, halo of light
When Jesus was born, on that Christmas night
And oh what a night! That Holy night was
When Bethlehem glowed, in the circle of love
Circle of love
In the circle of love
