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.
Somewhere
Far across creation
A stork flew
Down over the land
While signs of God
Fruit across creation
From seed to flower
Another winged-flight
And you, being
Dream in animation
Stand tall
Give witness to delight
At home here
Stand in anticipation
Watch horizons
For you to arrive
The world will move
Circling around you
And all will
Soften at your sight
And you perform
A thousand minor miracles
When you pull
Love from the coldest of hearts
Take my hands
And make me useful
Open-hearted
Open dreamer
And this how the story will go
Someday you'll be alone
It might take a lot of love
Just to get up that day
Or you might feel God on your back
Whispering away
But upon turning around
You might find that she's gone away, gone away
But blow a kiss
That floats across creation
Across the land
And up into the sky
And you will find
The gift was to the giver
For all man, always it returns
