From the shower to protestors in Hong Kong.

Title: Sing Hallelujah
Composer: Linda Stassen
Arranger: Mark Hayes

This hymn was fully composed at a workshop at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa. Stassen is claimed to have come up with the tune while taking a shower, before taking the tune to the workshop. This hymn has been used as a protest song which was sung by many Christians and non-Christians during the 2019–20 Hong Kong protests. I was asked to play the new church piano for 10 minutes before the beginning of the Easter service, so I played the Hallelujah Chorus and then this piece. It's a good reminder that we need to keep thanking God for sending Jesus, letting him be hung on a cross, and then raising him from the dead. I hope you enjoy it.

Lyrics:
Sing Hallelujah to the Lord
Sing Hallelujah to the Lord
Sing Hallelujah, sing Hallelujah
Sing Hallelujah to the Lord

Sing Hallelujah to the Lord
Sing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Sing Hallelujah to the Lord

Jesus is risen from the dead

Jesus is Lord of heaven and earth

Jesus is living in His church

Jesus is coming for His own
