Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tori Kelly]
Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing "Hallelujah"

[Chorus: Tori Kelly]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

[Verse 2: Jennifer Hudson]
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips you drew a Hallelujah

[Chorus: Both]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

[Verse 3: Tori Kelly]
I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
[Jennifer Hudson]
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
[Both]
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

[Chorus: Both]
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-
Hallelujah
