Dominique - Lyrics from “The Singing Nun” (Movie lyrics) sung by
Debbie Reynolds
Dominique, nique, nique I will tell of Dominique
His goodness to acclaim
And I pray the song I sing
Will some simple pleasure bring
That the world shall know his name!
I will tell of Dominique as I sing this little song
And when I sing the chorus all the world will sing along!
Dominique, nique, nique it was good Saint Dominique
He lived for you and me
From his labors long ago
Came a better world I know! And his love shall always be!
“Though I’m poor”, said Dominique as he spoke unto the Lord,
“I will be your humble servent and your love is my reward”!
Dominique, nique, nique I will follow Dominique
His burdens will I share
For his courage will I pray
His teachings to obey! His words shall be my prayer!
By the kindness of his heart and the labor of his hand
He brought love and understanding as he wandered through the land!
Dominique, nique, nique I will tell of Dominique
His goodness to acclaim
And I pray the song I sing
Will some simple pleasure bring! All the world shall know his name!
Dominique the mighty warrior was a soldier of the Lord
His armor was devotion and the Gospel was his sword!
Dominique, nique, nique it was good Saint Dominique
He lived for you and me
From his labors long ago
Came a better world I know! And his love shall always be!
Through the blazing heat of summer and the chill of winter snow
I will follow Dominique! In his footsteps I will go!
Dominique, nique, nique I will follow Dominique
His burdens will I share
For his courage will I pray
His teachings to obey! His words shall be my prayer!
