Chris Rice - Hallelujahs Lyrics
Lazy summer afternoonScreened-in porch and nothin' to doI just kicked off my tennis shoesSlouchin' in a plastic chairRakin' my fingers through my hairI close my eyes and I leave 'em thereAnd I yawn, and sigh, and slowly fade away(CHORUS)Deep enough to dream in brilliantColors I have never seenDeep enough to join a billionPeople for a wedding feastDeep enough to reach out and touchThe face of the One who made meAnd oh, the love I feel, and oh the peaceDo I ever have to wake upAwakened by a familiar soundA clumsy fly is buzzin' aroundHe bumps the screen and he tumbles downHe gathers about his wits and prideAnd tries again for the hundredth time'Cause freedom calls from the other sideAnd I smile and nod, and slowly drift away(repeat chorus)'Cause peace is pouring over my soulSee the lambs and the lions playin'I join in and I drink the musicHoliness is the air I'm breathin'My faithful heroes break the breadAnd answer all of my questionsNot to mention what the streets are made ofMy heart's held hostage by this love(repeat chorus)Do I ever have to wake upDo I ever have to wake upDo I really have to wake up now
