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.
Let us celebrate our gracious Lord, tho He was rich
made Himself poor, like no other king the world had known before.
Through His poverty we have received an overflow that longs to reach into
every need and fill it joyfully.
CHORUS
We will celebrate His good life; we will celebrate with joy.
We will celebrate His life; we will celebrate His joy celebrate our Lord's good life.
Let us celebrate our gracious Lord who teaches us to give Him more
than we ever dream'd that we could give before. For we have become the cheerful
ones who find our joy when His will is done; and in giving all, there's life that overcomes.
We'll celebrate His good life; we will celebrate with joy. We will celebrate His life; we will celebrate
with joy; celebrate our Lord's good life. We will celebrate His life; we will celebrate with joy;
celebrate our Lord's good life.
