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.
If you were a boat my darling, a boat my darling.
I'd be the wind at your back
If you were afraid my darling, afraid my darling.
I'd be the courage you lack.
If you were a bird, then I'd be a tree
and you would come home my darling to me
If you were asleep, then I'd be a dream,
wherever you are that's where my heart will be
Oh, do you know we belong together?
Oh do you know my heart is yours?
If you were the ocean, then I'd be the sand
If you were a song, I'd be the band
If you were the stars, then I'd be the moon
A light in the dark my darling for you.
