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.
We come into this holy place
To bring a sacrifice of praise
Bow down before You
Seek your face
We sing of the mighty things You've done
Cry out to You, let your will be done
Tell all the world You're the Holy One
Give the shouts of praise
As they're rising up to You
Come and fill this place
As we bring glory to your name
Open up the gates
And let the King of Glory in
Fill this house with praises as we
Lift our hands, and worship You
Open up the doors
And let your glory fill the earth
King of heaven we dance before your throne
King of heaven come and take your place
Dwell among us as we seek your face
