Analysis of I Cry Hallelujah!
Ronald-Bunch 1982 (Grand Rapids)
I love.
I live.
I pray.
My feelings fly.
My heart cries.
My tears are of joy,
I plead on one knee.
To God I worship,
I fall to both knees.
To the Son I worship,
I bow forward.
To the Holy Spirit I worship,
I have joy.
My fingers spread,
I reach over my head,
I have love.
My lungs reach over my bed,
I cry hallelujah!
