Hallelujah (Cover)
Avril Lavigne · Avril Covers [2000]
We sat by the fire united in song
Under the moonlight all night long
We sang 'Hallelujah' for the joy of it all
And out on the water a caroling loon
Sings us a sweet heavenly tune
There's peace in God's forest
The temple of life
CHORUS
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We looked to the sky
Deep into heaven's eyes
Hallelujah
[INSTRUMENTAL]
And back in the city I'm losing control
I need a place to ease my soul
There's peace in God's temple
The temple of life
CHORUS
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We looked to the sky
Deep into heaven's eyes
Hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We looked to the sky
Deep into heaven's eyes
Hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We looked to the sky
Deep into heaven's eyes
Hallelujah
Thank you Jesus we praise your name
Thank you Lord hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We looked to the sky
Deep into heaven's eyes
Hallelujah
Under the moonlight all night long
We sang 'Hallelujah' for the joy of it all
And out on the water a caroling loon
Sings us a sweet heavenly tune
There's peace in God's forest
The temple of life
CHORUS
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We looked to the sky
Deep into heaven's eyes
Hallelujah
[INSTRUMENTAL]
And back in the city I'm losing control
I need a place to ease my soul
There's peace in God's temple
The temple of life
CHORUS
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We looked to the sky
Deep into heaven's eyes
Hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We looked to the sky
Deep into heaven's eyes
Hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We looked to the sky
Deep into heaven's eyes
Hallelujah
Thank you Jesus we praise your name
Thank you Lord hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We looked to the sky
Deep into heaven's eyes
Hallelujah
