Hallelúja söngur

Þú bjargar. Þú blessar.
Með blóði keyptir frelsi mitt.
Er taldi' eg allt tapað
ég týndur heyrði kallið þitt
Þú mig fylltir fögnuði í sál
fékkst þar tendrað aftur vonarbál.

Þess vegna' eg syng: Hallelúja,
Syng: "Blessað sé þitt nafn!"
Þess vegna' eg syng: "Lof sé Jesú!"
Hallelúja! Hallelúja!

Þú leiðir, þú laðar,
þú lýsir veginn hvert sem er.
Mig sýknar, mig styrkir
mér sýnir, að þú bregst ei mér.
Þú mig fylltir gleði' og friði' á ný
frelsi gafst mér, hjartað fagnar því.

Hallelúja! Halleljúa! x2

Hallelujah song

You saved me. You made me.
You bought me with Your precious blood.
You knew me, saw through me.
You called me when I once was lost.
And You put this song inside my heart,
Gave to me the hope of a brand new start.

That's why I sing, "Halleluhah!"
Sing, "Glory to your name!"
That's why I sing: "Praise You Jesus!"
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

You hold me. You mold me,
Enfold me with your loving care.
You raise me, forgave me.
You made me know You're always there.
And You put this song inside my soul,
Gave me pure joy now that You made me whole.

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
