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.
Joy, rivers running through me
Peace, lighting up the scenery
Hope, deeper than I've ever known
Oh, and all my fear, oh, and every chain is gone
Looks like the winds have come, finally the weight is gone
Looks like I'm flying high, feels like we're falling up
Lost in love and it's heavenly
Lost in love and it's evergreen
Born again and I'm running free
And it's heavenly, and it's heavenly
Oh oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, joy, like rivers running through me
Peace, lighting up the scenery
Oh and hope, deeper than I've ever known
Oh, and all my fear, oh, and every chain is gone
Looks like the winds have come, finally the weight is gone
Looks like I'm flying high, feels like we're falling up
Lost in love and it's heavenly
Lost in love and it's evergreen
Born again and I'm running free
And it's heavenly, and it's heavenly
Oh oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Looks like the winds have come, finally the weight is gone
Looks like I'm flying high, feels like we're falling up
Lost in love and it's heavenly
Lost in love and it's evergreen
I'm born again and I'm running free
And it's heavenly, and it's heavenly
(Oh)
Oh oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
