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 come to the garden alone while the dew is still on the roses and the voice I hear falling on my ear the sound of God discloses he speaks and the sound of his voice is so sweet that the birds they house their singing and the melody that he sings to me with him my heart is still ringing and he walks with me and he talks with me and he tells me that I am his own and the joy we share as we dance as we dance
Nun other has ever, ever known
(Thanks to Deborah for these lyrics)
