Jeff Buckley from Miracle Service by Andy Squyres

Jeff Buckley by Andy Squyres
Verse 1
Arizona mountain I am in a free fall
Devil on my shoulder dagger in my eyeball
Set me back a decade looking in the rear view mirror
Everything against us sorrow in the trenches
Turning me into a poet throwing wrenches
Trying to make sense of a God who disappears

Chorus
Hallelujah is a heart that’s broken
Like a river running to the ocean
I’m Jeff Buckley singing Leonard Cohen
I feel all creation groaning

Verse 2
I have no defense for atmospheric pressure
Why there are tornados in the architecture
All I know is God isn’t making any guarantees

Chorus 2
Hallelujah is a heart that’s broken
Like a river running to the ocean
I’m Jeff Buckley singing Leonard Cohen
I feel all creation groaning
Walking through the streets of New York City
I’m in awe of all the hope that’s in me
From the Magnificat to Stephen’s stoning
I feel all creation groaning

Bridge
Appalachian mountain Milky Way above us
God can hear us counting Satellites and stardust
In the age of doubt all that’s left for us to do is believe
There is more to life than economic pressure
We are earthen vessels overflowing treasure
In the age of doubt all that’s left for us to do is to sing
