Representative Text

1 I’m a hallelujah Christian,
From the wilderness I came;
I’m saved and washed in Jesus’ blood,
Hallelujah to His name!

Refrain:
I’m a hallelujah Christian,
I’m so happy all the time;
I sing, and shout, and leap for joy,
And oh, it is sublime.

2 I came to Jordan’s river,
When the current was so strong;
I jumped right in and came straight thro’,
With a hallelujah song. [Refrain]

3 Oh, then I came to Jericho,
And the walls they were so high;
I gave a shout, and down they came,
And the Canaanites did fly. [Refrain]

4 I met the giants of the land,
They were so great and tall;
I pierced them with the sword of truth,
And the Anakims did fall. [Refrain]

5 I’m dwelling now in Beulah,
Where the sun shines all the time;
I live on figs, and grapes, and corn,
In a hallelujah clime. [Refrain]

6 And when the Bridegroom comes again,
And the trump sounds loud and long;
We’ll meet our Savior in the clouds,
With a hallelujah song. [Refrain]
