the lyric

Now I've 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
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew her
She tied you
To a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, 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
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, 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
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah

  • Thanx, great video....but if you want to post the lyrics, post 'em all...

  • I know but a friend of my post them and I didn't had the time to chance them

  • This is a wonderful version of the song . Thank you for TRYING to give the lyrics but only the first two verses are sung by Cale in this version. You gave the lyrics for one of Leonard Cohen's versions. There are somewhere between 12 and 15 verses written by Cohen .. in a book of his lyrics/poetry there are I believe 11 printed . I have seen the lyrics misprinted on a CD before so you are not the first to .

  • thanks for saying it to me, i didn't notist it, i will say it to the friend of me who added the lyrics.

  • leroy briljant idee van die lyric in je beschrijving

  • ja he goed idee
