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.
On a hill Your blood was spilled
Your brow, your hands, Your feet
With nails and thorns the veil was torn
To make a way for me, You made a way for me
Jesus, Saviour, my God, my King, my Lord
Jesus, Saviour, the Victory is Yours
Wrapped and bound they laid You down
A perfect sacrifice
But in three days the stone was rolled away
Forever You're alive, forever You're alive
Death has been beaten, the grave has been conquered
Jesus is Risen, life ever after
