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 am stranded on a beach that I've always known
I have fallen in love with this curse though I know it's not home
So I call out for rescue, and I work down to bone
Just searching for something no, anything
To get me back home
I am doubtful of a sail that could capture the wind
But I am speechless! The boat is open to let a doubter step in
Now the sail is my rescue, and I rest down below
Wind so strong it could kill me, but it carries me home
I am buried on the beach where I first began
I live by the water that soon will wash over the sand
The sail is my rescue, and I rest down below
Wind so strong it could kill me, but it carries me home
