In the quiet of morning, I stand alone
But my spirit won't bend, my faith is my home
They may bar every window, they may lock every door
But my voice finds a way through, rising up even more
Can't stop my hallelujah
Can't hold back what's true, yeah
My praise keeps rising higher
Through the darkest hour
Can't stop my hallelujah now
Some days feel so heavy, the pressure grows strong
But deep in my heart beats an unending song
Though the world tries to break me, tries to tear me apart
Still I lift up my hands, still I sing from my heart
Can't stop my hallelujah
Can't hold back what's true, yeah
My praise keeps rising higher
Through the darkest hour
Can't stop my hallelujah now
Even when my voice shakes
Even when I tremble
I will sing, I will sing
I will sing, I will sing
They can't take what's inside me
No, they can't take it
They can't break what defines me
We keep singing
Our faith grows stronger with every new day
Can't stop my hallelujah
Can't hold back what's true, yeah
My praise keeps rising higher
Through the darkest hour
Can't stop my hallelujah now
Can't stop my hallelujah now
