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.
What love is this!
Fighting for my heart when I lose my grip
Rescuing my life from a sinking ship
You deliver me
'Cause I was dead in my sin
Struggling 'til You came and You brought me in
Giving me a new chance to begin, and live again
I love, I love, I love
'Cause You first loved me, 'cause You first loved me
I sing, I sing, I sing
'Cause You sing over me, 'cause You sing over me
You are my strength
Faithful from the start and You have no end
A perfect Father and a perfect friend
You will always be
'Cause You have hold of my life
From the moment I am born 'til the day I die
Nothing else could truly satisfy me like You Lord
A love so strong, I can hardly understand it
A grace so deep, I can hardly comprehend it
Now I am held by a love that carries me
Now I am held by a love that carries me
What can I give to You Lord?
I pour out all my love
What can I bring to You but my life laid down for You?
