In whispered tones of ancient lore, A melody David strummed once more, Yet music’s magic seems lost on you. The chords, they rise, the notes they fall, A king confused, transcribing all, In sacred echoes sings his Hallelujah. (Chorus vocals) (Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah. ) Your conviction strong, your vision true, A rooftop scene, the moon’s debut, Her beauty’s pull left you undone. Bound and broken, chair and throne, Through whispered lips, the word has grown, In silence, sings the faintest Hallelujah. (chorus vocals) (Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah. ) The name you claim I’ve misused, Yet words elude, remain confused, Illuminated in every syllable’s glow. Holy or shattered, it’s all the same, Each utterance ignites the flame, In whispered echoes, the broken Hallelujah. (Chorus vocals) (Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah.) I offered all, though less it seemed, Numb to touch, yet still I dreamed, My truth laid bare, no intent to deceive. Though missteps marked the journey long, I face the music, weak but strong, With nothing left but a whispered Hallelujah. (Chorus vocals) (Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah.)
