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.
Standing at the door
It opened to the light
His majesty sat at the throne
A jasper stone in sight
24 before Him
The elders cast their crowns
On a sea of glass they bow
To an awesome God, an awesome power
Now your view is in tomorrow
As you focus in to sight
Where the bone meets the marrow
And the lighting cracks the sky
Hear the mighty thunder rolling
As the end begins to near-ah
And the prophecy's you're given
Now the prophecy's are here.
In the right hand
Books and seals abound
And no one there to open
No not one could be found
The Lamb who was broken
Was slain but yet alive
Receiving power and wisdom
And holy they all cried
