Hallelujah Through the Pain
Worship country-rock song with a mid-tempo arena stomp: an electric-guitar hook, swelling strings and big drums, with a raspy tenor and a gravelly baritone in a male duet. Defiant and cathartic, sung in English, about a hallelujah wrestled out of pain.
Lyrics
The dust is settling in my lungsI’ve tasted dirt and bit my tongueMy throat is raw from every screamBut I’m still standing in the streamThe water’s cold and dark and deepI’ve got a promise I must keepI’ll find a way to clear the airAnd find a blessing in the glareHallelujahA song I pulled from the wreckageHallelujahWrestled out of the nightHallelujahThe weight of every lessonHallelujahWrestled out of the nightI didn't find this on the hillI found it when the world stood stillBetween the hammer and the stoneI learned to speak a holy toneIt’s not a soft or easy soundIt’s what I dug up from the groundThe scars are open but they’re dryI’m looking straight into the skyHallelujahA song I pulled from the wreckageHallelujahWrestled out of the nightHallelujahThe weight of every lessonHallelujahWrestled out of the nightIt’s a victory and a fightIt’s the dark becoming lightIt’s the heavy breath of a manDoing everything he canI will lift it up like leadFor the living and the deadI will shout it till it’s trueGiving everything to YouHallelujahA song I pulled from the wreckageHallelujahWrestled out of the nightHallelujahThe weight of every lessonHallelujahWrestled out of the night
