Groom Sings Rendition of 'Hallelujah' to His Bride (5th Anniversary!)

I was blessed to marry my wife five years ago. Just as she had no idea that I had rewritten the lyrics of "Hallelujah" to surprise her at the Reception Hall on our wedding day, she has no idea that I made this video.

Happy Anniversary to the love of my life. May we have many more until the day we are called home. Hallelujah!

Original Song Written by Leonard Cohen

Lyrics:

You've come together here today;
For some you came from far away.
It seems a simple 'thank you' just won't do ya...
We thank you from the depths of our hearts;
Each one of you has played a part
In forming us to be for one another.

Hallelujah (x4)

Who would have thought we'd come this far-
From that first night in a country bar;
From 'Thunder Rolls' to 'God Beyond All Praising'?
Against all odds, despite our flaws,
Here we are in the reception hall.
We'll cherish this day forever; it's amazing!

Hallelujah (x4)

As for you, my blushing bride-
By now I'm sure you want to hide.
I know I promised not to embarrass ya (Much!)...
But here I swear, my Love, my wife-
Before God above I'll lay down my life
To see you saved forever, Hallelujah!

Hallelujah (x8)
