"Say Hallelujah" Lyrics

say hallelujah
throw up your hands
the bucket is kicked
the body is gone
close your eyes
bow your head
to rest your soul and praise the dead

say hallelujah
throw up your hands
the bucket is kicked
the body is gone
dry your eyes and stand up right
put a smile on your face
he wouldn't want us to cry

the sun will rise, the stars will shine
turning day to dusk and night to dawn
we'll pass on but until that time
say hallelujah
say hallelujah
say hallelujah
say hallelujah

say hallelujah
throw up your hands
the bucket is kicked
the body is gone
have mercy
it's a wonderful life
eternal rest for the weary mornest part of tonight

say hallelujah
throw up your hands
the bucket is kicked
the body is gone
wave your hands
but don't say goodbye
we're all gonna meet you on the other side...
