Analysis of Hallelujah
I woke up this morning.
I need proof.
The Son has rose.
I sang hallelujah.
I heard a baby’s cry.
First sign of life.
I sang hallelujah.
As time went on.
I took each breath.
I fell to my knees.
I need proof.
The holy dove descends.
The angels sang hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah.
