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.
For a much too long time
We didn't know what's going on
It almost seemed as if we didn't want to
Our world is like a cage
A cell painted in grey
And someone made us believe that grey is okay
Oh, we were like sheep led to the slaughter
Never mind what's going on
Oh, a grain of sand among a million
Lying on the beach of the sea of forgotten dreams
Do you hear the satan's laughter as
He is ringing mankind's knell
His lullaby still keeps us sleeping on
Far beyond our dreams there is a battle roaring
But our hearts reaches just a silent whisper
It's the hunger for life
That burns deep in us all
Maybe a little spark in a dark universe
Our eyes may be blind
But our hearts already see
The betrayal of mankind's enemy
Wake up, my child, wake up
Open up your eyes and see
The deadly night for you is over
Dreams of cruelty will no longer determine your life
Cause Jesus fought the battle just for you
It's the hunger for life
That burns deep in us all
Maybe a little spark in a dark universe
Our eyes may be blind
But our hearts already see
The betrayal of mankind's enemy
Oh, we were like sheep led to the slaughter
Never mind what's going on
Oh, a grain of sand among a million
Lying on the beach of the sea of forgotten dreams
It's the hunger for life
That burns deep in us all
Maybe a little spark in a dark universe
Our eyes may be blind
But our hearts already see
The betrayal of mankind's enemy
No more fear the beast
Even if it is still raging
And your new life has begun
No more need to fear 'cause we are children of the king
It's the hunger for life
That burns deep in us all
Maybe a little spark in a dark universe
Our eyes may be blind
But our hearts already see
The betrayal of mankind's enemy
