During the Civil War by Julia Ward Howe. The song is correctly titled the Battle Hymn of the Republic- Union , that is. One of the most widely parodized songs- there is even a version about the Russian Diaspora- In the year of Diaspora (l922) Stasia borne across the sea, On a big three-island steamer jaunt paid for by You and Me ( not substantiated- implies trip was on Uncle Sam) But the methods of production still defy the K.G.B.- the White Cause still goes on- then the chorus- Anastasia lives Forever, (3X) and the White Cause still goes on!

Words of the song hallelujah?

Hallelujah- Leonard Cohen. Now I heard there was a secret chord That David played and it pleased the Lord But you don't really care for music, do ya? It goes like this the fourth, the fifth The minor fall, the major lift The baffled king composing Hallelujah. Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Halle-lu-jah. Your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you She tied you To a kitchen chair She broke your throne, and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah Baby I have been here before I know this room, I've walked this floor I used to live alone before I knew you. I've seen your flag on the marble arch Love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah There was a time you let me know What's really going on below But now you never show it to me, do you? And remember when I moved in you The holy dove was moving too And every breath we drew was Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah You say I took the name in vain I don't even know the name But if I did, well really, what's it to you? There's a blaze of light In every word It doesn't matter which you heard The holy or the broken Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah I did my best, it wasn't much I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you And even though It all went wrong I'll stand before the Lord of Song With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah
