Hallelujah! - Song History
Words & Music: Dennis Jernigan
August 31, 2015
After several weeks of intense personal inner healing,
I stepped away from song writing/receiving for a brief
season. During that time, I worked on a series of
teachings for the body of Christ concerning how to
deal with the current culture without violating one’s
conscience. I also recorded a videos teaching series
as a companion for the written materials. At the
end of that several-week-period, I took a deep
breath and went fishing to celebrate the conclusion
of the filming. A couple of days later I felt led to go
back to the piano and this song was promptly born.
During the weeks prior, I never stopped ministering
publicly as I sought the Lord privately for my own
healing. I focused on what the Truth of God’s Word
says in the face of the current cultural climate and
found hope and peace and grace in that Word.
This song is a reflection of all God is doing in
me inwardly. This is the outward manifestation
of an inner-reality!

Then I heard something like the voice of a great
multitude and like the sound of many waters and
like the sound of mighty peals of thunder,
saying, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the
Almighty, reigns.
