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.
For every time you cried
From all the frustration
You swallowed your pride
You wear the scars
Of the imprisoned arise...
And you can testify
Blessed are we
We are free
Ominira, wa ominira
And all our hurt... is now our history
All that hurt... is now our history
All that hurt... is now our history
Our history... Ooooh!
Gather unto you
Your scattered resources
Have long been misused
Give again your heart
Don't let their corruption taint you
Your strength will multiply
Blessed are we
We are free
Ominira, wa ominira
And even our broken hearts
Will mend eventually
Ominira, wa
Blessed are we
Now we are free
Ominira, wa ominira
And all our hurt.. is now our history
All that hurt... is now our history
All that hurt... is now our history
... our history
... our history
