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.
Everybody's waited the whole year long
Counting down those days until Christmas comes
A chill is on the breeze and the family's all in town
The lights are on the tree and it won't be too long now
Feels like joy to the world
Feels like snow in the air
Feels like choir singing, church bells ringing
Hope is everywhere
Jesus Christ has come and one thing is clear
Between the tiny little baby and all my friends and family
It's the best time of the year
Feels like joy
Feels like joy
Love is shining, making evеrything seem bright
Happiness bringing, carolers singing Silent Night
So lеt's make a memory, we'll cherish through the years
It's the most wonderful time and that time is finally here
Feels like joy to the world
Feels like snow in the air
Feels like choir singing, church bells ringing
Hope is everywhere
Jesus Christ has come and one thing is clear
Between the tiny little baby and all my friends and family
It's the best time of the year
Feels like joy
Oh, it feels like joy, oh, yeah
A chill is on the breeze and the family's all in town
The lights are on the tree, and it won't be too long now
It feels like joy to the world
Feels like snow in the air
It feels like choir singing, church bells ringing
Hope is everywhere
Jesus Christ has come and one thing is clear
Between the tiny little baby and all my friends and family
It's the best time of the year
Feels like joy
Feels like joy
It feels like joy
Feels like joy
It feels like joy, joy, joy, yeah
It feels like joy
