Christian Hallelujah

These are lyrics I recently wrote to the tune of "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen. You might recognize his song. It was in one of the Shrek movies. A link to a version of this song sung on You Tube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIMOdVXAPJ0&feature=related (Use the back arrow to return to this site.)

CHRISTIAN HALLELUJAH

I sing praises to the God above
Who sent His Son, the King of Love
This Jesus bled and died for me and you

The Shepherd became the spotless Lamb
The first, the last, the great I AM
My forgiven soul just sings Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Halle-luuuu-jah

I was lost in sin, the darkest place
The Holy Spirit revealed His face
His glory and His eyes shine right through you

He picked me up, He dusted me off
Promised me I would no more be lost
My broken heart rejoices, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Halle-luuuu-jah

There are times I know my faith is weak
I stay on my knees, His face I seek
Through patience and prayer He will strengthen you

He rewards the contrite humble heart
The same forever right from the start
Our assurance is found in Him, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Halle-luuuu-jah

Now give Him all you have inside
You cannot run, you can never hide
He is the Truth that will see right through you

All praise to Jesus the only Son
To the Father, Spirit, the three in one
There’s nothing left to sing but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
(MEN) Praise to Jesus, Hallelujah (WOMEN)
Praise to Jesus, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Halle-luuuu-jah
