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.
The night has come
And a sea of clouds above is rolling in
We march as one and carry on
We're never giving in
Through the night you'll hear us singing
Lift up your head
Can't you see you're drowning in your own despair?
The fallen we will rise again and carry on
For song there's no defense
We'll sing across Your oceans
We'll sing across Your shores
We'll sing it through the night
We'll sing because we're Your's.
