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.
Running fast after nothing
Wish I could slow down but I forgot how
Searching to find my own heart beating
But it's nowhere to be found
Muffled by the sound of
Busy ears, busy hands
Busy minds, busy plans
I want to rest in each moment
I want to learn in your eyes
Forget all the time and remember, ooh
The splendor that life is
Trying to live like I used to
Present each breath and not just passing through
For I want to be here
I wanna really be here
Feel the weight of being alive
And I use my ears and my hands
All my mind, all my plans
To rest in each moment
I want to know your eyes
Forget all the time and remember
The splendor that life
And I'm through with running circles in my mind
No destination to find
I will settle
Stop and smell each petal
And remember
The splendor that life is
