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.
We bow our hearts, we bend our knees
O Spirit come make us humble
We turn our eyes from evil things
O Lord we cast down our idols
Give us clean hands give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
Give us clean hands, give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
O God let us be a generation that seeks
That seeks Your face, O God of Jacob
O God let us be a generation that seeks
That seeks Your face, O God of Jacob
We bow our heart and we bend our knees
O Spirit come make us humble
We turn our eyes from evil tings
O Lord we cast down our idols
So give us clean hands and give us pure hearts
Let us no tlift our souls to another
Give us clean hands, give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
O God let us be a generation that seeks
That seeks Your face, O God of Jacob
O God let us be a generation that seeks
That seeks Your face, O God of Jacob
So give us clean hands and give us pure heart
Let us not lift our souls to another
Give us clean hands, give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
O God let us be a generation that seeks
That seeks Your face, O God of Jacob
[acapella]
O God let us be a generation that seeks
That seeks Your face, O God of Jacob
So give us clean hands, give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
Give us clean hands, O God,
Give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
