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.
(verse 1)
I was
walking alone one day,
thinking of you.
I was
caught in anxiety,
facing the world,
searching,
for answers that were not there.
Then you stopped me with your words.
(chorus)
Surrender,
and lay down your life.
Surrender.
Cast your cares on me.
Surrender.
These scars are your victory.
This battle has been won.
(verse 2)
Then I
suddenly realized
what he said to me.
That I
was doing things my way.
Then he took me by the hand and said,
"Son I'm always here,
just remember my words."
