《美国之声》群星合唱《哈利路亚》为美康州校园枪击案逝者祈祷

12月14日美国康涅狄格州纽敦的桑迪胡克小学发生枪击案后，很多人陷入到震惊与悲痛中。近日，在美国著名的歌唱节目《美国之声》The Voice评委携选手合唱《哈利路亚》为美国康州校园枪击案逝者祈福。

在演唱中，每个演唱者手举枪击惨案遇难儿童的名字。他们所唱的《哈利路亚》被国人所熟知，最早是犹太人莱昂纳德·科恩（Leonard Cohen ）所唱，后被很多人翻唱。

信仰对美国人很重要，每次在发生重大事件的时候，祈祷与为逝者唱赞美是很多人选择的悼念方式。死去的28名死者中，一位27岁女老师娃维多利亚的替学生挡了子弹。在纪念她的烛光晚会上，大家献唱了《奇异恩典》。

在小镇的教堂中，主日早上居民带着悲伤聚集祷告，愿上帝怜悯这些孩子们。如此信仰气氛浓厚的处理方式中，我们还从人性中看到一些光辉。如在学校枪击案中身亡的6岁小姑娘的爸爸前几日通过CNN向大家讲述对女儿艾米莉的爱，并表达了对凶手家人的慰问。

Hallelujah　

Now I've heard there was a secret chord　　
That David played, and it pleased the lord　　
But you don't really care for music, do you?　　
Well it goes like this: the fourth, the fifth　　
The minor fall, and the major lift　　
The baffled king composing hallelujah　　
Hallelujah　　
Hallelujah　　
Hallelujah　　
Hallelujah　　
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 her kitchen chair　　
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair　　
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah　　
Hallelujah,　　
hallelujah　　
Hallelujah,　　
hallelujah　　
Well baby, I've been here before　　
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor　　
You know, I used to live alone before I knew you　　
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch　　
And love is not a victory march　　
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah　　
Hallelujah,　　
hallelujah　　
Hallelujah,　　
hallelujah　　
Well There was a time when you let me know　　
What's really going on below　　
But now you never show that to me, do you?　　
But remember when I moved in you　　
And the holy dove was moving too　　
And every breath we drew is Hallelujah　　
Hallelujah,　　
hallelujah　　
Hallelujah,　　
hallelujah　　
Well maybe there's a God above　　
But all I've ever learned from love　　
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you　　
And it's not a cry that you hear at night　　
It's not somebody who's seen the light　　
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah　　
Hallelujah,　　
hallelujah,　　
hallelujah,　　
hallelujah,
