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'm so glad Jesus lifted me
I'm so glad Jesus lifted me
Oh I'm so glad that Jesus lifted me;
glory hallelujah, glory hallelujah,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
glory hallelujah, He lifted me.
[Verse 2:]
When I was in sin, Jesus lifted me.
When I was in sin, Jesus lifted me.
When I was in sin, Jesus lifted me;
singing glory hallelujah,
singing glory hallelujah,
glory hallelujah, He lifted me.
[Verse 3:]
Satan had me bound, Jesus, He lifted me.
Satan had me bound, Jesus, He lifted me.
Satan had me bound, Jesus, He lifted me;
glory hallelujah, glory hallelujah,
oh glory hallelujah, He lifted me.
[Verse 4:]
When I was in trouble, Jesus lifted me.
When I was in trouble, Jesus lifted me.
When I was in trouble, Jesus lifted me;
singing glory hallelujah, glory hallelujah,
glory hallelujah, He lifted me.
[Chorus:]
Glory, glory hallelujah,
He lifted me.

[Vamp 2:]
Oh, oh, oh,
glory, hallelujah,
He lifted me.
