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 see the Lord, I see the Lord
Exalted high upon the worship
Of the people of the earth
I see the Lord, I see the Lord
My eyes have seen the King
The Lamb upon the throne
Who reigns forever more
I see the Lord, I see the Lord
Exalted high upon the worship
Of the people of the earth
I see the Lord, I see the Lord
My eyes have seen the King
The Lamb upon the throne
Who reigns forever more
The train of his robe
Fills the temple
A cloud of heavenly worshipers
Surrounding HIs throne
We join with them now crying
Holy, holy is the Lamb
The Lamb alone
And ever
Forever and ever, Forever and ever
Forever and ever, Forever and ever
Forever and evermore
Forever more
My eyes have seen the king
The Lamb upon the Throne
Who reigns forever more
