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 what people do
I hear what people say
I know there's trouble everywhere
I see it every day
Some things won't get better
Some people won't get through
But I can dream of a better world
If I want to
If I want to imagine peace on every hand
I close my eyes and dream my dreams
In dreams I make a stand
Anytime I start missing human harmony
I listen hard until I hear the music inside me
I can sing of a better world if I want to
I can dream of a better world if I want to
If I want to
You walk down any street
You don't know what you'll find
Sometimes it takes me all I have
To face a world unkind
But I won't give up trying
I won't just let it go
I still believe you can plant a dream
If you want to
If I want to imagine peace on every hand
I close my eyes and dream my dreams
In dreams I make a stand
Anytime I start missing human harmony
I listen hard until I hear the music inside me
I can sing of a better world if I want to
I can dream of a better world if I want to
I listen hard until I hear the music inside me
I can sing of a better world if I want to
I can dream of a better world if I want to
And I want to
