[offset:-100] [00:12.38]There's a man on corner and his clothes are worn [00:17.64]And he's holding out his hand [00:23.33]You can see in his eyes as the people walk by [00:29.75]He knows they don't understand [00:35.21]You see, they just think he's gonna take their money [00:42.18]And then go and spend it on dope [00:47.68]Then a man stopped by him and I saw a smile inside [00:54.11]As he gently whispered hope [01:09.14]Well the tramp started to cry, just kept saying [01:12.78]Why, why, why? Can't you see I'm a down-and-out [01:21.78]I'm 32 and I've got this one pair of shoes [01:28.06]And a bad taste in my mouth [01:34.09]I think it's clear to see that even God don't love me [01:40.77]Or else why would he leave me this way. [01:46.93]Then Gabriel just smiled and said "Be at peace my child, [01:53.99]Salvation is here today." [02:00.48]He got up to his feet and he sang Hallelujah [02:07.70]People were turning around in the street [02:12.04]He looked them in the eyes and he sang Hallelujah [02:18.58]There's someone here you gotta meet [02:24.15]Someone you just gotta meet. [02:39.01]When the vagabond turned around, well without a sound [02:45.06]Gabriel just smiled and disappeared [02:50.92]When he looked to the crowd they were laughing out loud [02:57.15]But he could not see them for tears [03:02.74]When his vision came round there was a young girl on the ground [03:08.88]And he knew she was finding it hard to cope [03:14.72]She never was a fighter until he laid beside her [03:20.97]And gently whispered hope [03:28.20]They got up to their feet and they sang Hallelujah [03:34.76]People in the street were turning around [03:39.27]They looked them in the eyes and they sang Hallelujah [03:45.22]Oh, there's someone here that we have found [03:50.18]They sang, Hallelujah, Hallelujah [03:57.16]We are the voices crying in the wilderness [04:02.85][04:14.40]Hallelujah, Hallelujah [04:08.69]The people in the street started their sins to confess and a chorus of [04:26.66]Every knee will bow and every tongue confess [04:31.25]And the voice of one crying in the wilderness [04:36.35]Crying out Hallelujah, Hallelujah
