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.
Take my hands, take my feet
Take the music to the street
Hears the prayers, feel the sound
A generation Kingdom bound
Great and glorious
Is my Savior
Praises from my tongue
From my heart
For our God who became flesh
For us all
Unto You
I will sing Your praises
Sing forever
Take my will, take my all
Wrap my life around Your call
Set apart to sing Your praise
To live the difference in these days
Great and glorious
Is our Savior
Oh, for a thousand tongues to sing
To sing aloud, sing aloud
Oh, for the glory of my God and King
Oh, for a thousand tongues to sing
