Halleluiah!
Halleluiah! (Halleluiah!)
Halleluiah!

Oh Lord, who dares to circle the holy chancel today?
Let my steps stay true upon the narrow way.
So I may tread the line that’s ever right... 
(that’s ever right...)

Halleluiah! (Halleluiah!)
Halleluiah!

Who today can counsel a wandering soul,
And gently point the path to make it whole?
Grant me the grace to thank You, Pure and True,
(thank You... Pure and True...)

Halleluiah! (Halleluiah!)
Halleluiah!

Why bring a hymn of worship with a hand so stained?
What meaning holds a hymn when crimson blood stains the bier?
Permit my deeds to do well for You, free, unmeasured -
Not for the trophies... ( unmeasured... free...)

Halleluiah!
Halleluiah! (Halleluiah!)
Halleluiah!

What can the loan sharks, the takers of a hidden fee,
Add to the altar where the Divine’s Light is free?
Grant me ears that hear the needy’s humble plea —
For only in the poor’s cry does true worship flee.

Halleluiah! (Halleluiah!)
Halleluiah!

No need to walk with the wicked or hear their lies,
No need to sit where murder’s cold shadow lies.
Save me from fading among the lost,
And let my voice lift gratitude for The Miracle You wrought. 

Halleluiah! (Halleluiah!)
Halleluiah!

I love The Holy Home where Your Light resides,
I love The Throne where Your Glory reigns.
Open my heart, O, Lord, to voice the thanks I feel,
To tell the world of wonders only You could weave.
 
Halleluiah!
Halleluiah! (Halleluiah!)
Halleluiah!
