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 want to see You
But this faceless sky is emptier than I
Feel a hollow depth
Under hunger, below breath I
Want to hear You
But I'm growing discontent knowing pain
Worn and bruised I lift
The torn up to the used again
I am asleep if You are awake and
How can I speak when I am this way
I offer up myself
But You do not say a word
With every breath I beg for answers
Tangled with my error
Words make no sound
When I open up my mouth apparently
All my doubting and needing
Are dependent on Your bleeding
And I'd feel better
If You'd tightly tie our wounds together
With empty knees I bring
The strings I stole and slowly severed
I should go so I can pretend
That the wind will catch me, I know
I can't go, I need to know
That Your wind will catch me
Why should I speak if You will not listen
I can't survive on all my intentions
Why can't I see that it's me who's regressing
Would You give me all that I'm missing
And I offer up myself
But I carry everything
And if I'd give it all to You
I know that You would hold me
I offer up myself
But I bury everything
And Your mercy hurts me more
Because I know I hurt You
