Hallelujah

Dedicada aos Heróis que estão a fazer o Curso Geral de Catequese, na Arquidiocese de Braga.

I heard there was a secret chord

That David played and it pleased the lord

But you don't really care for music do ya

It goes like this, the fourth the fifth

The minor fall and 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 ya

She tied you to her kitchen chair

She broke your throne, and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Well, maybe there's a God above

But all I ever learned from love

Was how to shoot at somebody who outdrew ya

And it's not a cry that you hear at night

It's not somebody who's seen the light

It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah …
