Forgive me, father, for I have seen So much pain and suffering Is there any hope for me? Oh-oh-oh-oh Forgive me, father, for I am lost In all the trouble I have caused Now what will become of me? Oh-oh-oh-oh I went down to the river I went down, but the river was dry Went down to the river And when I closed my eyes I saw a devil walking in the daylight Oh-oh-oh-oh I saw a devil, devil in the daylight Oh-oh-oh-oh And he sings hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah to me And he sings Hallelujah (oh-oh-woah) Hallelujah (and he sings) Hallelujah (hallelujah to me) Hallelujah I lay down 'til the morning I lay down (oh-oh-oh-oh) I lay down 'til the morning comes To carry me away See the devil dressed in white Heaven fell a hundred times Oh the joy his sorrow brings When he sings hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah to me Let him sing Hallelujah (oh-oh-woah, sing) Hallelujah (let him sing) Hallelujah (oh, hallelujah to me) Hallelujah I saw the devil walking in the daylight (Hallelujah) And I saw the devil walking in the daylight (Hallelujah) I saw the devil walking in the daylight
