Lyrics

Man of sorrows what a name
For the Son of God, who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim
Hallelujah, what a Savior!


Bearing shame and scoffing rude
In my place condemned he stood
Sealed my pardon with his blood
Hallelujah, what a Savior!


Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah


Hallelujah
Hallelujah
For the Lord God Almighty reigns


Hallelujah, what a Savior!
Hallelujah


Well it goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah


Holy
Holy
Are You Lord God Almighty


Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, what a Savior!
Hallelujah
Amen

Meaning & Inspiration

“Hallelujah Medley” gathers several familiar sacred and popular phrases around a shared cry of praise. Its opening verses focus directly on Christ as the suffering Savior who bears shame, stands in the sinner’s place, and secures pardon through blood. The repeated hallelujah answers that saving work with gratitude. From there, the medley broadens into declarations of God’s reign and holiness, allowing different musical texts to converge on worship.

The strongest biblical thread is the vision of the Lord God Almighty reigning while heaven responds with hallelujah. Repeated descriptions of God as holy also echo scenes of worship in Revelation, where divine purity and authority inspire continual praise. Even as the medley shifts between sources and tones, its Christian center remains Christ’s sacrifice and God’s sovereign rule. The closing amen gives the sequence the feel of a congregational affirmation: sorrow, pardon, kingship, and holiness all lead toward the same response of adoration.
