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.
Come let us sing for
Joy to the Lord
Let us shout aloud
To the Rock of our salvation
Let us come before
Him with thanksgiving
And extol Him with
Music and with song
Sing halle, hallelujah
Sing hallelujah
Sing halle, hallelujah
Sing halle, hallelujah
Come let us bow
Down in worship
Let us kneel before
The Lord our Maker
For He is our God
And we belong to Him
We are His people
The flock under His care
Come bring your praises
To the Lord
Shout aloud to the
Rock of our salvation
Holy holy is the Lord
