Better than a Hallelujah

God loves a lullaby in a mother"s tears in the dead of night

Better than a Hallelujah sometimes

God loves a drunkard"s cry,

the soldier"s plea not to let him die

Better than a Hallelujah sometimes

We pour out our miseries

God just hears a melody

Beautiful the mess we are

the honest cries, of breaking hearts

Are better than a Hallelujah

A woman holding on for life, a dying man giving up the fight

Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes

Tears of shame for what"s been done

The silence when the words won"t come

Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes

We pour out our miseries, God just hears a melody.

Beautiful the mess we are,

the honest cries, of breaking hearts

Are better than a Hallelujah

Better than a church bell ringing

Better than a choir singing out,

Singing out

We pour out our miseries

God just hears a melody

Beautiful the mess we are

the honest cries, of breaking hearts

Are better than a Hallelujah
