HIVE OPEN MIC WEEK 153 --- HALLELUYAH (Cover)

The song "Halleluyah" was originally composed and sung by Leonard Cohen. It was released in the year 1984 in the album "Various positions". Later on, Alexander Burke sang the song and released it in her album in the year 2009. Ever since then, she has been presenting the song in various occasions and this had made her the most known face behind the song and people already begin to believe that she owns the song.

The song is a type of song that soothes the heart especially when you listen to it at your down moments. It lightens up the soul and makes us see life as worth living. I bring this song to you all today so we could all enjoy the rhythm and serenity of the song. Enjoy 🤗🤗

LYRICS

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?
Well, 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

Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not someone who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
