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.
There is a song
Down in my heart
Down in my soul
One that I and only
I could ever know
A song that, that even
The angels cannot sing
Oooh I, ooh
I have been redeemed
Oooh I, ooh
I have been redeemed
When I was drifted
Like a ship without a sail
Your love drew me
Your blood saved me
Now I must sail
How you washed my sins away
And you changed my name
Oooh I, ooh
I have been redeemed
Ooh, I
Oooh
I have been redeemed
Jesus paid the price
Jesus sacrificed all
Jesus, gave his life
(2x):
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Oooh, Jesus
Gave his life
Oooh I
Oooh, I have been redeemed
Oooh I
Oooh, I have been redeemed
