Lyrics

[Verse 1]
God loves a lullaby
In a mother's tears in the dead of night
Better than a hallelujah sometimes
[Verse 2]
God loves a the drunkard's cry
The solider's plea not to let him die
Better than a hallelujah sometimes
[Verse 3]
We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breakin' hearts
Are better than a hallelujah
[Verse 4]
The woman holdin' on for life
The dyin' man givin' up the fight
Are better than a hallelujah sometimes
[Verse 5]
The tears of shame for what's been done
The silence when the words won't come
Are better than a hallelujah sometimes
[Verse 6]
We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
Honest cries of breakin' hearts
Are better than a hallelujah
[Verse 7]
Better than a church bell ringin'
Better than a choir singin' out
Singin' out
[Verse 8]
We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breakin' hearts
Are better than a hallelujah
[Verse 9]
We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breakin' hearts
Are better than a hallelujah
[Verse 10]
(Better than a hallelujah sometimes)
Better than a hallelujah
(Better than a hallelujah sometimes)
