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.
"whole years of joy glide by unpercieved away,
while sorrows count the mintues as they pass."
-william harvard
beauty unbounded lies in your mind
it shines in your face ad speaks through your eyes
sour still the memory of past words and fears
clouds thick the joy and happier years
sorrow unmeasured runs through your frame
pulling you down and taking your strength
sorrow unmeasured runs through your frame
pulling you down and taking your strength
stars in your eyes and dreams in your heart
are almost in reach yet a little too far
