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.
Once in the backyard,
She was once like me,
She was once like me.
Twice when I killed them,
They were once at peace,
They were once like me.
Hold to your gun, man,
And put off all the beast,
Put off all the beast.
Paid a full of these, I wait for it,
But someone's once like me.
She was once like me.
I once was better.
I put off all my grief.
I put off all my grief.
So I go to hell, I wait for it,
But someone's left me creased.
Someone's left me creased.
