The Village Of St. Bernadette Lyrics - 16 Biggest Hits - Andy Williams

Words and Music by Eula Parker 

(peak Billboard position # 7 in 1959-60) 

I've traveled far, the land and the sea 

Beautiful places I happened to be 

One little town I'll never forget 

Is Lourdes, the village of St. Bernadette 

Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-a 

Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-i-ia 

There, like a dream, this wonderful night 

I gazed at the grotto aglow in the light 

A feeling divine swept over me there 

I fell to my knees as I whispered the prayer

Now I am home, I'm happy to be 

Telling of places I've traveled to see 

One little town I'll never forget 

Is Lourdes, the village of St. Bernadette
