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.
Breaking the silence, into the chaos you came
Born in our likeness, held in the hands that you made
For our deliverance, Your promise was given a name
Emmanuel, the God who saves
I hear a voice, from heaven declare
Prepare the way
Emmanuel, oh praise the name
I hear the sound, heaven cried out
And love made a way
Christmas was born on that day
Oh, what a day, oh what a day
Christmas was born on that day
Oh, what a day, oh what a day
As it is written, Jesus the glory of God
No reputation, you took on our flesh and blood
For our forgiveness
And for the world you so loved
Emmanuel, the God who saves
I hear a voice, from heaven declare
Prepare the way
Emmanuel, oh praise the name
I hear the sound, heaven cried out
And love made a way
Christmas was born, your kingdom come
Glory to God with us
Angels adore, bow down before
Glory to God with us
Christmas was born, your kingdom come
Glory to God with us
Angels adore, bow down before, glory to God
Emmanuel, the God who saves
I hear a voice, from heaven declare
Prepare the way
Emmanuel, oh praise the name
I hear the sound, heaven cried out
And love made a way
Christmas was born on that day
Oh, what a day, oh what a day
We'll never be the same
Oh, what a day, oh what a day
Christmas was born on that day
