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.
Well I've been beat and I've been laughed at
And I've been drugged through strings of pain
And I've had people turn their back on me
I have been called every name
And I've felt lonliness and hunger
And I felt helpless and betrayed
And all the hurtful things you've done to me
You know my love has never changed
You drove the nails through my hand
I never gave up on you
You placed the thorns on my head
But I'm right here with you
I'm here with you
Well I took the sting of torture
So you wouldn't feel the pain
Well I was nailed upon a cross for you
And child I'd do it all again
You drove the nails through my hand
I never gave up on you
You placed the thorns on my head
But I'm right here with you
I'm here with you
You drove the nails through my hand
I never gave up on you
You placed the thorns on my head
But I'm right here with you
I'm here with you
