Anne Murray - Song Of Bernadette Lyrics






There was a child named Bernadette
I heard the story long ago
She saw the queen of heaven once
And kept the vision in her soul

No one believed what she had seen
No one believed what she heard
That there were sorrows to be healed
And mercy, mercy in this world

So many hearts I find
Broke like yours and mine
Torn by what we've done and can't undo

I just wanna hold you
Come on, let me hold you
Like Bernadette would do

We've been around, we fall, we fly
We mostly fall, we mostly run
And every now and then we try
To mend the damage that we've done

Tonight, tonight, I just can't rest
I've got this joy here, here inside my breast
To think that I did not forget
That child, that song of Bernadette

So many hearts I find
Hearts like yours and mine
Torn by what we've done and can't undo

Well, I just wanna hold you
Come on, let me hold you
Like Bernadette would do

I just wanna hold you
Won't you let me hold you
Like Bernadette would do?

    Song of Bernadette - Anne Murray (lyrics)

    There was a child named Bernadette
    I heard the story long ago
    She saw the Queen of Heaven once
    And kept the vision in her soul
    No one believed what she had seen
    No one believed what she heard
    But there were sorrows to be here
    And mercy, mercy in this world

    So many hearts I find, broke like yours and mine
    Torn by what we've done and can't undo
    I just wanna hold you, come on let me hold you
    Like Bernadette would do

    We've been around, we fall, we fly
    We mostly fall, we mostly run
    And every now and then we try
    To mend the damage that we've done
    Tonight, tonight I just can't rest
    I've got this joy inside my breast
    To think that I did not forget that child
    That song of Bernadette

    So many hearts I find, broke like yours and mine
    Torn by what we've done and can't undo
    I just wanna hold you, won't let me hold you
    Like Bernadette would do
    I just wanna hold you, come on let me hold you
    Like Bernadette would do

You have reached out and touched my heart deeply once again with this song. Don't ever give up the gift God blessed you with. Your heart and your beautiful singing voice.
