Hallelujah
For love and faith that are both a little broken 🕊️
Who it's for
Leonard Cohen weaves biblical stories together with tangled, imperfect love, suggesting that praise can come from a broken place as much as a triumphant one.
Broken and searching→Tender acceptance

What it is
"Hallelujah" is a song by Leonard Cohen, first released on his 1984 album Various Positions after Columbia Records turned the album down. Its verses allude to Old Testament stories, including King David and Bathsheba and Samson and Delilah, mixing the sacred with the sensual and human desire with spiritual searching.
