Hallelujah Songtext / Lyric

I heard there was a secret chord

That David played and it pleased the Lord

But you don't really care for music, do you?



It goes like this the fourth, the fifth

The minor fall, the major lift

The baffled king composing Hallelujah



Hallelujah

Hallelujah



Your faith was strong but you needed proof

You saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you



She tied you to her kitchen chair

She broke your crown and she cut your hair

And from you lips she drew the Hallelujah



Hallelujah

Hallelujah






You say I took the name in vain

I don't even know the name

But if I did, well, really, what's it to you?



There's a blaze of light in every word

And it doesn't matter which you heard

The holy or the broken Hallelujah



Hallelujah

Hallelujah



I did my best, it wasn't much

I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch

I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you



And even though it all went wrong

I'll stand before the Lord of Song

With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah



Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah



Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah
