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.
You're my faithful friend
When I feel like I'm on my own
You remind my heart
It's darkest right before the dawn
'Cause even in the dead of night
When darkness is on every side
You're telling me to lift my eyes
It's gonna be alright, alright
Suddenly a light will shine
As we're waiting for the morning light
As steady as a new sunrise
It's gonna be alright, alright
Yeah it's hard sometimes
But I know how the story ends
Although this night is long
On your faithfulness I can depend
'Cause even in the dead of night
When darkness is on every side
You're telling me to lift my eyes
It's gonna be alright, alright
Suddenly a light will shine
As we're waiting for the morning light
As steady as a new sunrise
It's gonna be alright, alright
Arise and shine
Arise and shine
