V1- God loves a lullaby
V2- The woman holding on for life,
In a mothers tears in the dead of night
The dying man giving up the fight
(Are) Better than a Hallelujah sometimes.
God loves the drunkards cry,
Tears of shame for what's been done,
The soldiers plea not to let him die
The silence when the words won't come
(Are) Better than a Hallelujah sometimes.
We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah.
Goto Verse 2
Better than a church bell ringing,
Better than a choir singing out, singing out.
