Caveat emptor and change your playlists.
Honestly, the usage of Biblical imagery and language just feels to me like intentionally mocking Christians. It’s borderline blasphemous, and part of the whole Use God’s Name in Vain During Sex degeneracy.
One version has additional lyrics that go:
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
Rolling Stone says it ‘Brilliantly Mingled Sex, Religion’.
The Wikipedia entry calls it ‘a “baseline” for secular hymns’ while a cover versions of it are described as ‘a hallelujah to the orgasm’ and ‘a “very sexual” composition that discussed relationships’.

Dipshit, Cohen was jewish and the song is deeply connected to that. Take your shitty Christian versions and cast their bastardry to the depths of hell were they belong.
