Hallelujah! The strength of the Word
haleluja - A minister I knew once questioned the depth or "the soul" of a song I wrote because it was " an audio lesson of largely just Hallelujahs". Today I'd like to take a moment with this issue and consider the term "Hallelujah" in a few depth.
Its etymology is from the Hebrew and means "Praise Jah" or "Praise God". Interestingly enough, it is a word that circumnavigates the globe and spans most languages. When translated, the word "Hallelujah" (or sometimes "Alleluia") remains the same: In Spanish it's "Aleluya", in Finnish and German it's "Haleluja", in French it's "Alleluia", in Estonian it's "Haleluuja", in Icelandic it's Halleluja, in Slovak it's "Aleluia" and also on and on that way. So it is a word whose four syllables mean the same thing to the majority of of mankind. Repeat the word almost any place in Africa and so they know how you're feeling. Very few words translate that way. Consider perhaps the word "God". Even this word changes dramatically in their pronunciation and spelling in translation. "Hallelujah" is truly universal.
haleluja - I know of few other word in language or song that carries such joy, such celebration, such depth of spirit and soul. Having its four open vowels, it is a gorgeous utterance to sing when sung alone or encompassed by itself and repeated again and again it is the epitome word of celebration in human language. I've found that when I'm writing a sacred song that i'm most filled up with the spirit of God, fundamental essentials words that spill from me repeatedly since the melodies pour through me from God. Over and over again, "Hallelujah". It takes place so often that I have to rewrite the lyrics into other words, otherwise nearly all of my songs would sing only "Hallelujahs".
A guy named George Fredric Handel used it to musically summarize his penultimate tribute towards the birth of Christ in the finale of his "Messiah". Who may have not sat in wonder in the singing of this great gift to mankind since the same word cascaded from the choir?
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
For your Lord God Omnipotent reigneth.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Certainly not comparing myself to Frederic Handel, I too used these words to great effect inside a song that opened the performance from the Jenny Burton Experience which ran to out of stock audiences for upwards of seven years within Nyc.
Let's move on having a Hallelujah
Let's begin with a Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
There is certainly music in our lives
There is music in the air all around us
There's a spirit inside our lives
As well as the music as well as the spirit are certainly one
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
A simple statement, but with the body weight and power of this phenomenal word it is certain the audiences knew exactly where i was choosing the inspirational goal of the performance. It set the spirit with the evening in stone and launched us cleanly and clearly into the arena of spiritual thought.
haleluja - Exactly what is a word but an emblem to have an idea. These sounds that come out of our mouths represent concepts small or large. Repeat the word "streetcar" so we understand specifically that which you mean. Repeat the word "God" you'll also find as many definitions of the word as you have listeners. But repeat the word "Hallelujah" as well as the world is suddenly all for a passing fancy page as well as in some way feeling and knowing the light that you will be experiencing. This is a word that bears repetition, no, actually, clamors for repetition, for to state it once is not enough. It ought to be repeated and repeated in the wonder of God's grace and power, love, soul, and spirit. Oahu is the penultimate word inside the human language in praise of God.
When life's at its best, in the moment when not one other words suffice, for many people here in the world, out pops the term "Hallelujah". This elegant and universal utterance captures the essence of celebration and it is immediately understood deeply inside the soul of most.
