When the rain you want is a flood instead
And the roses bloom, but they’re not quite red
When I reach the edge of my bravery
I’ll still be singing at the banks of an un-parted sea
Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
Sometimes the only thing to do is just to give it to You
And though my troubles shake me
I know they will never move You
Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
That’s why I say hallelujah, hallelujah
Ther?’s what I want and then there’s where I’m at
Every one step forward, it got me five steps back
And I cried, I called, God knows I prayed
But most days faith is climbing up a mountain that stayed
Hallelujah, hallelujah
That’s why I say hallelujah, hallelujah
It don’t always fix your problems
But it’ll tell you how small they are
That’s the thing about praise
That’s the thing about praise
It won’t always move the mountain
But it’s good for the heart
That’s the thing about praise
That’s the thing about praise
You’ll never know what it’s gonna change
But it’ll always leave a mark
That’s the thing about praise
That’s the thing about praise
Yeah, I might see walls start falling
Or it might just change my heart
That’s the thing about praise
That’s the thing about praise
That’s the thing about praise
That’s the thing about praise
That’s the thing about praise
You never know what it’ll change, change, change
That’s why I say hallelujah, hallelujah
Yeah, that’s the thing about praise
You don’t even know what it’s about to change
That’s why I say hallelujah, hallelujah
