Lyrics
There's a man in the corner and his clothes are worn And he's holding out his hand You could see in his eyes as the people walk by He knows they don't understand You see, they just think he's gonna take their money And then go and spend it on dope Then a man stopped by and I saw a smile inside him As he gently whispered hope Well, the tramp started to cry, just kept saying Why? Why? Why? Can't you see I'm a dying tonight? I'm 32 and I've got this one pair of shoes And a bad taste in my mouth I think it's clear to see that even God don't love me Or else why would He leave me this way Then Gabriel just smiled and said, "Be peaced, my child Salvation is here today" He got up to his feet and he sang Hallelujah People were turning around in the street He looked them in the eyes and he sang Hallelujah There's someone here you gotta meet Someone you just gotta meet When the vagabond turned around, well, without a sign Gabriel just smiled and disappeared When he looked to the crowd, they were laughing out loud But he could not see them fore tears When his vision came round There was a young girl on the ground I knew she was fine and hard to cope She never was a fighter until he laid beside her And gently whispered hope They got up to their feet and they sang Hallelujah People in the street were turning around They looked them in the eyes and they sang Hallelujah Oh, there's someone here that we have found They sang Hallelujah, Hallelujah We are the voices crying in the wilderness Hallelujah, Hallelujah The people in the street started their sins to confess And a chorus of Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Every knee will bow and every tongue confess And the voice of one crying in the wilderness Crying Hallelujah, Hallelujah
