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.
VERSE 1:
We're a raging fire, lighting up a darkened sky, dear friend
The love of God will be seen tonight
So come burn with me now, letting Jesus shine out
And we'll show the world what we hold inside
CHORUS:
You and me, we're gonna light up this town
You and me, we're gonna light up this town
(repeat)
VERSE 2:
He is not slow in keeping His promises, dear friend
He's coming back for His beautiful Bride
So get oil in your lamps, keeping watch till the end
Awake oh sleeper, arise and shine
CHORUS:
You and me, we're gonna light up this town
You and me, we're gonna light up this town
(repeat)
BRIDGE:
We are a city on a hill, glowing with the glory
Sending out a light to find the souls lost in the valley
It's time to dance and make a sound, it's time to worship Jesus
I see the darkness fading, the atmosphere is changing…
TAG:
Multitudes in the valley of decision
A city on a hill cannot be hidden
