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.
Be still my soul, the lord is on our side
Leave to our God to order and provide
Though we can't see
We'll wait here patiently
His love will meet our needs
He's working, just believe
Be still my soul, and know for sure
That God is on our side
His love will never end and never die
Be still my soul, and make a stand
Place your trust in him
He loves us, he loves us
He loves us all
Be still my soul and know that he is God
Through every change, he's faithfully our guide
