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 the things we've done and left undone
For the ways we've wandered from Your heart
Forgive us we pray
Forgive us we pray
For the idols we put on Your throne
For the loves we choose above Your own
Forgive us we pray
Forgive us we pray
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on us, on us
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on us, on us
For the lies that we clutch to our chests
For the fear that wants to steal our breath
Forgive us we pray
And give us Your grace
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on us, on us
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on us, on us
Forgiving God
Forgiving us
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on us, on us
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on us, on us
