There’s something special about this song I’m about to sing, “Hallelujah” by Leonard Cohen. It’s one of those songs that finds its way into your heart quietly, and then never really leaves.
I first heard it as a child while watching Shrek. Back then, I didn’t understand the lyrics at all, but the sound stayed with me. I remember that scene so clearly, it was emotional, even for a cartoon. That was my first taste of how music can make you feel something deep, even if you don’t fully get it yet.
As I grew older, I came across the song again, and this time, the words started to make sense. It talks about brokenness, love, loss, and still finding something sacred in the middle of it all. That really moved me.
So today, I’m singing Hallelujah, not just because it’s beautiful, but because it holds a piece of my journey. I hope it reaches you the same way it reached me. Promotional video

Lyrics 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 falls, the major lifts The baffled king composing Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah 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 a kitchen chair She broke your throne, and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Well, maybe there’s a God above But all I’ve ever learned from love Is how to shoot somebody who outdrew you But it’s not a crime that you’re here tonight It’s not some pilgrim who claims to have seen the light No, it’s a cold and it’s a very broken Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
