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.
There's a wideness in God's mercy
Like the wideness of the sea
There's a kindness in His justice
Which is more than liberty
How great is Your mercy
How great is Your love
How great is Your mercy
How great is Your love, the love You have for me
There is welcome for the sinner
And more graces for the good
There is mercy with the Savior
There is healing in His blood
How great is Your mercy
How great is Your love
How great is Your mercy
How great is Your love, the love You have for me
For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of man's mind
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind
How great is Your mercy
How great is Your love
How great is Your mercy
How great is Your love
How great is Your mercy
How great is Your love
How great is Your mercy
How great is Your love, the love You have for me
