Sing Hallelujah

We're into the thick, we're in the uncertain We're only floundering not drawing the curtain Hope springs eternal, but so does fear When there lies a threat to all I hold dear My face is covered but my voice isn't silenced I can't turn my eyes from these visions of violence We ache for those whose world has stopped turning We ache for the time when Rome wasn't burning This is not how the story ends With these, I stand and sing Hallelujah! Hallelujah! We will not break, we will not bend With my voice, my hands I sing Hallelujah! Hallelujah! I can't plug my ears to keep from thinking Of the stories that tell me our ship is sinking It's a cracked jaw when I'm leaving the ring But there's still breath left in me to sing This is not how the story ends With these, I stand and sing Hallelujah! Hallelujah! We will not break, we will not bend With my voice, my hands I sing Hallelujah! Hallelujah! When I look in life's mirror what will I see Will it be grace and truth staring at me When the day comes that truly brings light Will I recognize the good fight This is not how the story ends With these, I stand and sing Hallelujah! Hallelujah! We will not break, we will not bend With my voice, my hands I sing Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
