Hive Music Festival// Week24 Round-3//- Live cover of HALLELUIA by ...

Hellooo..Greetings to you all on Musiz Zone community.

For this festivel week-24, Round-3, I shall present a live performance with my brothers. HALLELUIA by LEONARD COHEN. I am on the #SAXOPHONE, two other brothers on the Keyboard and drums.

I sat thinking of what song to delight us with for this week, boooom🤸 I grabbed what showed forth before me #HALLELUIA.

So, I engaged my brothers and took few minutes of their time to bring this piece up.

O yea! The song got me deep in that, being a Catholic we know that HALLELUIA is a HEAVENLY LANGUAGE sung only by ANGELS to God and we're as well previledged to participate in singing it.

David was the greatest man in his time, a king, a musician, composer. In fact, David played virtually all instruments available during his time.

We hear of #Harp and other strings instruments. He composed lots of #Psalms as we have now. Of course. We are now beneficiaries of his initiative and skills

Going forth and fifth, showing minor falls and major lift to shout the great HALLELUIA

This pleased the Lord. Cohen placed some factual realities which of course, we've today in music as well.

The truth is according to Cohen "there's a blaze of light in every word of Halleluia whether it's the holy or broken Halleluia.

So, Halleluia shouldn't end. It should show in all we do. It's a form of gratitude as well.

Trust me, shouting Halleluia blazes in the mind. In fact, it is life in itself.

Nothing should come up our minds other than showing gratitude to God. However, this is done through the closest and even the seeming distant people we meet.

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 fall, the major lift
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

You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did—well, really—what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light in every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah
