All my words fall short 
 I got nothing new 
 How could I express 
 All my gratitude? 
    I could sing these songs 
 As I often do 
 But every song must end 
 And You never do   
 So I throw up my hands 
 And praise You again and again 
 'Cause all that I have is a hallelujah, hallelujah 
 And I know it's not much 
 But I've nothing else fit for a King 
 Except for a heart singing hallelujah, hallelujah   
 I've got one response 
 I've got just one move 
 With my arm stretched wide 
 I will worship You   
 So I throw up my hands 
 And praise You again and again 
 'Cause all that I have is a hallelujah, hallelujah 
 And I know it's not much 
 But I've nothing else fit for a King 
 Except for a heart singing hallelujah, hallelujah   
 So come on my soul, oh, don't you get shy on me 
 Lift up your song, 'cause you've got a lion inside of those lungs 
 Get up and praise the Lord 
 Oh, come on my soul, oh, don't you get shy on me 
 Lift up your song, 'cause you've got a lion inside of those lungs 
 Get up and praise the Lord   
 Come on my soul, oh, don't you get shy on me 
 Lift up your song, 'cause you've got a lion inside of those lungs 
 Get up and praise the Lord, hey 
 Praise the Lord, praise the Lord 
 Praise the Lord   
 So I throw up my hands 
 Praise You again and again 
 'Cause all that I have is a hallelujah, hallelujah 
 And I know it's not much 
 But I've nothing else fit for a King 
 Except for a heart singing hallelujah, hallelujah
