There are tears of pain and tears of joy
That come with any tragedy.
What sees us through is that great gift
The Magnificence of Humanity.
"I will send you everything you need"
Said the director of the Charity.
But what you can't send in a box,
Is the Magnificence of Humanity.
While wise men argue and debate
Amongst the scientific community
They all agree, they can't explain
The Magnificence of Humanity.
They came from the land down under
Where woman roar and men thunder.
Together they showed us the gift of care
From the Magnificence of Humanity.
And by my stay, here in Kallar,
With volunteers, friends and Cathy.
I had the good fortune to experience
The Magnificence of Humanity.
So as you journey through this life
Experiencing joy through to calamity.
Listen to your heart, it is the source
For your Magnificence of Humanity.
One hundred years from now
People will talk about "Tsunami"
And I pray they have remembered
The Magnificence of Humanity.
