Hallelujah

He is pious and very sensitive
On his wall a picture of the Lord
He wipes the stains from the Bible
He likes to distribute communion

He loves the boys from the choir
They keep their souls pure
But he is worried about the tenor
So he must be closest to him
On his bedside table, quiet and silent
A picture of the Lord
He slowly turns it over

When the tower clock strikes twice
Hallelujah
He folds his hands in prayer
Hallelujah
He is left without a wife
Hallelujah
So he must love his neighbour
Hallelujah

The young man is allowed to stay with him
Sin nests over the leg
So he likes to help drive them out
With music and candlelight

When the tower clock strikes twice
Hallelujah
He folds his hands in prayer
Hallelujah
He is left without a wife
Hallelujah
So he must love his neighbour
Hallelujah

When the tower clock strikes twice
Hallelujah
Does he take the boy into prayer
Hallelujah
He is the true Christian
Hallelujah
And knows what charity is
Hallelujah

Turn around slowly
turn around
