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'm lookin' at the broken pieces
Life shattered on this empty floor
I've tried so hard to simply keep it
I know there must be something more
I'm here now to turn it over; complete surrender
Into Your great hands, I will place my trust (ohh)
When I cannot stand, You will lift me up (ohh)
Every failure, every fear, every step that led me here
All I am, into Your great hands (ohh)
This goes against my every instinct
To loosen my grip and let go
But really all that I am risking
Is perfect peace in my soul
Into Your great hands (Your great hands), I will place my trust (ohh)
When I cannot stand (when I cannot stand), You will lift me up (ohh)
Every failure, every fear, every step that led me here, oh
All I am, into Your great hands (ohh)
These hands that took the nails (took the nails)
These hands, they will not fail (will not fail)
These hands that bear my scars (bear my scars)
These hands that hold my heart
Into Your great hands, into Your great hands
Into Your great hands (ooh), I will place my trust (ohh)
When I cannot stand, You will lift me up (You will lift me up, ohh)
Every failure, every fear, every step that led me here
All I am (all I am), into Your great hands (Your great hands, ohh)
Into Your great hands
Into Your great hands, ohh
Into Your great hands
Into Your great hands, ohh
