in the dark last night i felt so alone
the sadness of a dream sinking to the bone
and then i felt your eyes look upon me
from miles away and time apart you leaped in
and crossed my heart with the simple song of hallelujah...
hallelujah, hallelujah...hallelujah...hallelujah
i never knew a soul could ache
i never knew a mind could break
and shatter into so many jagged pieces
but then you came along and offered up a song
that swept away the rising tides of sorrow...
hallelujah, hallelujah...hallelujah...hallelujah
its all a journey without an end
a love i never need to defend
hope in a world of so much suffering
i have taken your name into my soul
written it on the sacred scroll
and with tender thoughts signed a hallelujah
hallelujah, hallelujah...hallelujah...hallelujah
as time on earth moves along i hear the notes of this song
played out in nature across all the seasons
a leap of verse...a soft caress of lines that i still undress
in a whispered response of hallelujah
hallelujah, hallelujah...hallelujah...hallelujah
