Hallelujah anyway

The barn isn't full
Even the sparrow has flown away
My reserve is depleted
Hallelujah anyway
They've tried to break me
And most have succeeded
My hands are empty
Of all that I've needed
Hallelujah anyway
In the eye of the storm
And the end of the road
My capacity diminished
In pulling this load
Hallelujah anyway
They prefer i not be here
I prefer it as well
The promise of peace
Evaporated into hell
Hallelujah anyway
My reason for rejoicing
Ripped all apart
The security that used to reside in my heart
Is no longer part of my days
Hallelujah anyway
I don't praise the moments
Covered in peace
Don't rejoice for the ones
When i feel relief
I don't covet the ones
That cause me to pray
But they do so
Hallelujah
Anyway.
