I heard there was a secret code

That david played and it pleased the lord

All we want is to play that music for you

It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth

The minor fall, the major lift

And all we sing is a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

I know that there is a god above

That is all I’ve ever known of love

To see his son there broken, beaten, for me

So while we’re here let’s sing this song

I want you all to sing along

Let’s raise a cry, let’s raise a hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

In the still and quiet place

I still can feel his warm embrace

Although I know the storms they rage around me

To live your dream is quite the cost

Just don’t look back, and don’t get lost

My offering is a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
