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 healed And mercy, mercy in this world
So many hearts I find Broken like yours and mine Torn by what we’ve done and can’t undo I just want to hold you Won’t you let me hold you? Like Bernadette would do
We’ve been around we fall, we fly We mostly fall, we mostly run And every no and then, we try To mend the damage that we’ve done
Tonight, tonight I cannot rest I’ve got this joy inside breast To think that I did not forget That child, that song of Bernadette
So many hearts I find Broken like yours and mine Torn by what we’ve done and can’t undo I just want to hold you Come on let me hold you? Like Bernadette would do
I just want to hold you Won’t you let me hold you? Like Bernadette would do
