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 started off at quarter to three
What did that mean to me
I tie my hands I waste my time
Sleeping on the bottom line
I bite my nails to the quick
It's the kind of thing that makes me sick
I'm shaking at the break of may
In april lives another day
Cause every time I look around
I'm seeing other towns and they sound like dust
Their colors rust
But they're still here
The endings seem to fall in place
I'm saving what I can for grace
But I started off at quarter to three
And no it meant nothing to me
Cause every time I look around
I'm seeing other towns and they sound like dust
Their colors rust
But they're still here
