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.
Bless the Lord, oh my soul
Sing praise to Him and Him alone
Bless the Lord, oh my soul
Sing praise with me, you heavenly hosts
And I can't help myself
There is no one else
Like you, God
And I could sing a song
A hundred miles long
But it won't compare
Bless the Lord, oh, my soul
Sing praise to Him and Him alone
Bless the Lord, oh, my soul
Sing praise with me, you heavenly hosts
And I can't help myself
There is no one else
Like you, God
And I could sing a song
A thousand miles long
But it won't compare
Woo
Hallelujah, sing to the Lord
Hallelujah, my soul, my soul rejoice
My soul, my soul rejoice
Hallelujah, sing to the Lord
Hallelujah, my soul, my soul rejoice
My soul, my soul rejoice
Hey
My soul, my soul, rejoice
Ooh
Woo
