(Damien Sings)

I never imagined that the call I heard for mission

Would lie far across the oceans in a kingdom on the seas.

 

To brothers and sisters made to live apart from others,

I must touch and teach my brothers

That they are precious in God's eyes.

 

Molokai,  I adore you! Molokai, here before you I stand;

Molokai, how you love me!  Molokai, I am humbled!

You have my adoration!  You are my inspiration, my friends!

You are my reparation!  Molokai, I am humbled by your love.

 

(The people sing)

We never imagined a haole in Kalaupapa

At the church of Philomena, where he touched the skin we wear.

 

Damien, we adore you!  Damien, here before we stand;

Damien, mahalo!  Brother Damien, we will remember!

You have our adoration!   You are our inspiration to go on!

Damien, mahalo!  Father Damien, we will remember how you loved!

 

Damien: Molokai!

People: Damien!
