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.
I can see the angels gathering
'round the throne to bring an offering
Of praise to the King of all Kings
It's Jesus
I can hear their voices singing loud
Bringing anthems in a glorious cloud
Of praise to the king of all kings
It's Jesus
Nations will join and men confess
Declaring your holy righteousness
Giving their hearts, their lives, their all
To the king of glory
Mountains declare and oceans roar
All of creation stands in awe
Join with them now in one accord
Holy is the Lord
All of the angels stand and sing
The anthem of heaven loudly rings
Hear them proclaim this offering
Holy is the Lord
Holy is the Lord
Holy is the Lord
