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.
Sunshine, won’t you be my mother?
Sunshine, come and help me sing
My heart is darker than these oceans
My heart is frozen underneath
We are crooked souls trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
Where the shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine
Two scared little runaways
Hold fast till the break of daylight when
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine
Oh, Lord, why did you forsake me?
Oh, Lord, don’t be far away, away
Storm clouds gathering beside me
Please, Lord, don’t look the other way
I’m a crooked soul trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
Where the shadow proves the sunshine,
the shadow proves the sunshine
Two scared little runaways
Hold fast till the break of daylight when
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine
Yeah, yeah!
Shine on me!
Yeah, yeah!
Shine on me!
Yeah, yeah!
Shine on me!
Yeah, yeah! (shine on me)
(Oh!)
(Oh!)
(Oh!)
We are crooked souls trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
Where the shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine
Two scared little runaways
Hold fast till the break of daylight when
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine
Yeah, yeah!
Shine on me!
Yeah, yeah!
Shine on me!
Yeah, yeah!
Shine on me!
Shine on me!
Let my shadows prove the sunshine!
