I turn to the Bern
lucky one
brave and strong
I turn to the Bern
principled one
devotion-long
his hands tell the story
he cares enough to be worried
his voice might get frazzled
his know-how and conviction
always dazzle
I turn to the Bern
solid one
on solid ground
I turn to the Bern
humane being
right here to be found
his heart is a marvel
moving mountains
swimming rough seas
his arms stretch out to reach us
embracing you, embracing me
I turn to the Bern
confident one of visionary might
I turn to the Bern
read the fine print, by his light
his spirit sweeps dark corners
reminding us how it can be
he lifts up we mourners
calls us all to be free
I turn to the Bern…trust, confide, aim high!
I turn to the Bern…neighbor-relate, participate!
I turn to the Bern…join the tide, rise inside!
