Sœur Sourire (The Singing Nun) - Je Voudrais

Jeanine Deckers, also known as Sœur Sourire (Sister Smile) was a Belgian nun who had a recording career in the 1960’s. She was known in America as “The Singing Nun“. I came upon her by accident when I bought her LP from a thrift store. She was an interesting person, and more research on her is warranted if you like this song. Lyrics in English: -I Would Like To Be I’d like to be just like the wind, singing everywhere I’d like to be just like the wind dancing everywhere Like the wind that praises the Lord Like the wind I’d like to be like the white cloud, Fluffy in the sky I’d like to be like the white cloud In the sun Like the cloud that seaches for the Lord Facing You.... I’d like to be like the flame from a wood fire I’d like to be like the flame from a wood fire Just like the flame that rises, Lord Dancing for You I’d like to be like a guitar A singing heart I’d like to be like a quitar A vibrant heart Like a guitar that You fill with the strength Of Your song
