Lyrics
When the rain you want
Is a flood instead And the roses bloom but they're not quite red When I reach the edge Of my bravery I'll still be singing at the banks of an unparted seaSometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah) Sometimes the only thing to do is just to give it to you (The only thing to do is just to give it to you) And though my troubles shake me I know they will never move You Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah, hallelujah That's why I say hallelujah, hallelujahThere's what I want
And then there's where I'm at Every one step forward, it got me five steps back And I cried, I called God knows I prayed But most days Faith is climbing up a mountain that stayedThat's why the only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah) Sometimes the only thing to do is just to hand it to you (The only thing to do is just to hand it to you) And although my troubles shake me I know they could never move You Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah, hallelujah Hallelujah, hallelujah Hallelujah, hallelujah That's why I say hallelujah, hallelujahIt don't always fix your problems
But it'll tell you how small they are That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praiseIt won't always move the mountain
But it's good for the heart That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praiseYou'll never know what it's gonna change
But it'll always leave a mark That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praiseI might see walls start falling
Or it might just change my heart That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praise That's the thing Verse 1 When the rain you want Is a flood instead And the roses bloom but they're not quite red When I reach the edge Of my bravery I'll still be singing at the banks of an unparted seaSometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah) Sometimes the only thing to do is just to give it to you (The only thing to do is just to give it to you) And though my troubles shake me I know they will never move You Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah, hallelujah That's why I say hallelujah, hallelujahThere's what I want
And then there's where I'm at Every one step forward, it got me five steps back And I cried, I called God knows I prayed But most days Faith is climbing up a mountain that stayedThat's why the only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah) Sometimes the only thing to do is just to hand it to you (The only thing to do is just to hand it to you) And although my troubles shake me I know they could never move You Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah, hallelujah Hallelujah, hallelujah Hallelujah, hallelujah That's why I say hallelujah, hallelujahIt don't always fix your problems
But it'll tell you how small they are That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praiseIt won't always move the mountain
But it's good for the heart That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praiseYou'll never know what it's gonna change
But it'll always leave a mark That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praiseI might see walls start falling
Or it might just change my heart That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praise That's the thing about praiseThe only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah) Sometimes the only thing to do is just to hand it to you (The only thing to do is just to hand it to you) And although my troubles shake me I know they could never move You The only way through it is a hallelujah, hallelujahEnding
That's the thing about praise You never know what it'll change, change, change That's why I say Hallelujah, hallelujah Hallelujah, hallelujah praiseThe only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah) Sometimes the only thing to do is just to hand it to you (The only thing to do is just to hand it to you) And although my troubles shake me I know they could never move You The only way through it is a hallelujah, hallelujahEnding
That's the thing about praise You never know what it'll change, change, change That's why I say
