Yeah, I don't always feel it
Yeah, but that's when I need it the most
So I'ma keep on singing
'Til my soul catches up with my song
There's times when my hands go up freely
And times that it costs, oh, oh
There's days when a praise comes out easy
And days when it takes all the strength I've got

  I'll bring my hard-fought, heartfelt been-through-hell hallelujah
  And I'll bring my storm-tossed, torn-sail story-to-tell hallelujah, oh, oh
  'Cause God, You've been patient
  God, You've been gracious, faithful, whatever I'm feeling or facing
  So, I'll bring my hard-fought, heartfelt it-is-well hallelujah, oh, oh
  Hallelujah
  Hallelujah

Oh, I've wrestled with the darkness
But I'm trying to reach for the light
Yeah, the struggle keeps me honest
And it breaks down the walls of my pride
'Cause faith isn't proven like gold
'Til it's been through the fire, oh-oh
My head, heart and hands are feeling heavy
That's when I lift them just a little higher

  Lord, I need You
  How can I be the same when I'm not?
  Lord, won't You free me?
  It ain't been easy, break off these chains, Lord

  I'll bring my hard-fought, heartfelt been-through-hell hallelujah, hallelujah
  I'll bring my storm-tossed, torn-sail story-to-tell hallelujah, oh, oh
  God, You've been patient
  God, You've been gracious, faithful, whatever I'm feeling or facing
  I'll bring my hard-fought, heartfelt it-is-well hallelujah
  Oh, hallelujah
  Hallelujah
  Oh, oh, hallelujah
  Oh, hallelujah
  Hallelujah
