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.
And now the days must fly away
And leave us with our own indifference
With thoughts of fear, we hold on dear
To that which cannot keep us safely
The time wrapped up in yesterday
Can't save the words that have my own thoughts
Only you now know the place
That rings the bells and bleeds my own heart
And all I've been for now and then
You know within these troubled movements
Is the end, upon my head
You will kiss to end the torture
