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.
Have you ever stopped to wonder
What kind of place this would be
If the whole world stopped loving
The way you stopped loving me
If every heart was broken
The way that you broke my own
And the whole world stopped loving
How long would living go on
Hear the church bells in the steeple
As they ring their song through the air
If the whole world stopped loving
There'd be no steeple bells there
The tears would fill the rivers
Till the rivers flooded the sea
If the whole world stopped loving
The way you stopped loving me.
