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 have never lied to you
I won't ever hide the truth.
Trust me when I say this now
I won't ever let you down.
I'll admit it, I'll confess,
My heart is heavy; my head's a mess.
Searching high and low each day,
Only trying to find my way.
I've told a lie to no one else,
I've told a lie to just myself.
I catch another fallen tear
By a thread my soul's in tact
I question if I'm standing here
One, two, three steps back,
Stumble down, heart attack,
But I tell the world it's just a scratch.
I thank God, and the heavens above,
Try to be grateful for all He does.
At times I struggle; at times I crash,
This world, it moves way too fast.
I can't keep up with how it is,
I can't forget; I can't forgive.
All I can really do or say,
Is tell myself that I'm ok.
Often times, I feel just fine,
But sometimes I tell a lie.
I catch another fallen tear
By a thread my soul's in tact
I question if I'm standing here
One, two, three steps back,
Stumble down, heart attack,
I tell the world it's just a scratch.
Everything will be all right,
Sleep it off; sleep tonight.
The morning might be sunny bright
Sleep tonight; we're all right.
