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.
How can you call me your friend?
(How can you call me your friend?)
You run me around in circles. But your words slide off.
You lie, so I won't try to fight you.
These words they choke me. They resonate in my heart.
My soul won't let me sleep.
How can you call me your friend?
(How can you call me your friend?)
You bleed me dry with slander. But your words slide off.
The grace that I have found without you.
These words they choke me. They resonate in my heart.
My soul won't let me sleep.
And I will rise upon your wings and I will rise above your wings.
Stabbing backwards on to you here
Falling backwards on to you.
And I will rise, rise above you.
And I will rise, rise above you.
