To the Song Hallelujah

There were many days when all was well When hearts were pure and smiles swelled I used to live in a shack down by the sea I’ve seen the tears of joy at night The radiance of stars so bright It beauty melted the stony parts of me Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah There were many nights when I felt fright When there was no one to be found in sight But I had to keep on pushing, pressing on And when I thought of the good old days My only words became sweet praise And the winds just whispered hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah I know there is a God above Who healed me by his tender love Though all I’ve ever known was pain and doubt It’s not by might nor by my power It’s by his spirit I sing this hour A redemptive, thankful, glory hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah They say that people cannot change But I know better, because I’m not the same And since I did, well, really, what’s it to you There is a word I now call victory I only know it because I’ve been set free The holy one deserves his hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah Contest:Hallelujah By; Sabina Nicole
