The Jackson 5's song "Hallelujah Day" is clearly a song of hope and joy. The lyrics are about the belief that a better day is coming and that love will soon arrive. The song starts off calling for everyone to come together and celebrate, as good news has been received. The children are asked to gather around, and the whole group is urged to clap their hands and sing because the sun is shining and "soon the bells are gonna ring." It's clear that something significant has happened, and that it's a day to be celebrated.
The lyrics then focus on the fact that someone has "finally saw the light" and that they're "gonna send our brothers home." It's quite clear that the singers are referring to an event involving people who have been imprisoned or held captive, potentially referring to political prisoners. Either way, it's a sign of hope that something positive has taken place, and that there is a reason to celebrate. This sentiment is repeated in the chorus, which urges everyone to sing "Hallelujah Day" because love is on its way.
