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 could listen to my heart
I could listen to the world
I could listen to my problems
But what I think I need to hear
Nice and loud and crystal clear
Is about the One who's gonna solve them
(Oh)
I need something that can fill my soul
(Oh)
On a record or the radio
Ain't nothing like a gospel song
Makes me want to sing it all day long
Something 'bout that amazing grace sound of praise
Makes my troubles not seem so strong
Let me hear a heart set free
Holy Bible to a melody
Turn it up and then play it again, play it again, play it
On and on and on
Ain't nothing like a gospel song
Let me stop and testify
I was dead and brought to life
By the power of my Savior
But if I'm being real with you
Sometimes I forget it's true
I could use a reminder
(Oh)
I need something that can fill my soul
(Oh)
On a record or the radio
Ain't nothing like a gospel song
Makes me want to sing it all day long
Something 'bout that amazing grace sound of praise
Makes my troubles not seem so strong
Let me hear a heart set free
Holy Bible to a melody
Turn it up and then play it again, play it again, play it
On and on and on
Ain't nothing like a gospel song
Ain't nothing like a gospel song
I will sing, I will sing the name of Jesus
I will sing, I will sing of all He's done
I will sing, I will sing the name of Jesus
I will sing, I will sing till kingdom come
Ain't nothing like a gospel song
Makes me want to sing it all day long
Something 'bout that amazing grace sound of praise
Makes my troubles not seem so strong
Let me hear a heart set free
Holy Bible to a melody
Turn it up and then play it again, play it again, play it
On and on and on
Ain't nothing like a gospel song
Ain't nothing like a gospel song
Like a gospel song
