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.
Can you hear the sound of the angels
The choir lifting high
One great song of celebration they sing
Can you hear the sound of the people
Victory's in the air
The chains are loose
The captives they are free
The victory is the Lord's
Death you have no sting
Jesus You are Lord over all
We will worship you our King
Can you hear the sound of the children
They're laughing in the streets
Hand in hand
They will dance and sing
I can hear the sound of the children
They're dancing in the streets again
