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.
As dark as the night
A terrible sight
I wandered far away from home
No way to escape
Though try as I might
But you found a gate to my surprise
I never knew you were there
Just wanting to help me up when the road got hard
I'll never go there again
Discovering where you are, where you are
I tried to carry the ache alone
Thought I could brave the cold (woah, woah oh)
I found that I couldn't change the old
Never could break the mold (woah, woah oh)
So take my slow beating heart
You are where I belong
A sleight of the hand
A change in the plan
I'd had it nearly figured out
Could not understand
Was I at the end?
I'd only sought to play pretend
I never knew you were there
Just wanting to help me up when the road got hard
I'll never go there again
Discovering where you are, where you are
I tried to carry the ache alone
Thought I could brave the cold (woah, woah oh)
I found that I couldn't change the old
Never could break the mold (woah, woah oh)
So take my slow beating heart
You are where I belong
You are, you are the only one
You are, you are the only
You are, you are the only one
You are, you are the only
The only
I tried to carry the ache alone
Thought I could brave the cold (woah, woah oh)
I found that I couldn't change the old
Never could break the mold (woah, woah oh)
So take my slow beating heart
You are where I belong
