*Hallelujah----- Inspired by Leonard Cohen Song Jude Kyrie The light it poured from up on high. From a magenta red and yellow sky. The visions only made you cry. Those up above just sighed a sigh. You don’t want heaven, do you? The weeping moon is sobbing hallelujah. The lost and broken lie in the street Walk the world in unshod feet. Why are all these children there? Doesn’t anybody care? Statistics only fool you. Cold winds whisper hallelujah. Children are reaching out for love Their arms outstretched to up above. Begging love from heaven’s door. Only silence rings for evermore. Just bitter rains to cool you. Broken children sobbing Hallelujah They say there is a God above. But all my grace has come from love Why fill Gods mansions full of treasure When to feed the hungry was his measure. Sick and tired of those that rule you. Winter winds wail hallelujah.* Authors Note
