Amy Grant – Better Than A Hallelujah – 25 Days of Christmas Music

Oh, I had forgotten how much I love Amy Grant

What a great song.

It reminds me

– to enjoy the moments –

– have no regrets –

– live life to the fullest –

– enjoy the music –
– God loves me, mess and all –

I am kind of forgetful,

and so not only do I NEED songs that remind me,

I LOVE songs that REMIND ME OF THIS . . .

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah

The tears of shame for what’s been done
The silence when the words won’t come
Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes

God loves a lullaby
In a mother’s tears in the dead of night
Better than a Hallelujah sometimes

God loves the drunkard’s cry
The soldier’s plea not to let him die
Better than a Hallelujah sometimes

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah

The woman holding on for life
The dying man giving up the fight
Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes

The tears of shame for what’s been done
The silence when the words won’t come
Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah

Better than a church bell ringing
Better than a choir singing out, singing out

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah

(Better than a Hallelujah sometimes)
Better than a Hallelujah
(Better than a Hallelujah sometimes)
