God loves a lullaby in a mother’s tears in the dead of night Better than a Hallelujah sometimes God loves a drunkard’s crythe soldier’s plea not to let him die 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 HallelujahA woman holding on for life a dying man giving up the fight Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes Tears of shame for what’s been done 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 Better than a church bell ringing Better than a choir singing out singing out Sarah Hart and Chapin Hartford Produced by Dan Muckala
