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.
A sacrifice I'm making with you,
but a bigger one without.
Rely on time to push us forward,
letting go and thrusting out.
Never forfeit in frustration my responsibility.
The potter's hand although refreshing,
is a painful place to be.
Stand tall, never believe you are going to be like this.
Jesus make her rise above it,
rise above.
If only I could see much broader,
beyond the scope of my own flesh,
I could see your glory wadding throughout the storm.
And it keeps me bent all backwards on this pedestal of grace.
I'll always curse you in the morning,
but I greet you in the day.
