Forgiveness is the panacea for so many of the world’s great ills
It can heal your precious body as your sacred soul she fills
She can find your way back home again
She can mend your broken heart
Forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness

Compassion is the panacea for so many of the world’s great ills
It’s danger is its absence, and it’s absence often kills
When sung out clear from the highest place
You could never hear a sweeter song
Compassion, compassion, compassion

With forgiveness, compassion love and understanding
We can be all that we can be
No matter where the road may lead dear ones
From tears to Picardy

Forgiveness is the panacea for so many of the world’s great ills
It can lead us to enlightenment, and it can bring the mind to still
It can lift us up to a higher place
And one day will take us to the stars
Understanding, understanding, understanding

With forgiveness, compassion love and understanding
We can be all that we can be
No matter where the road may lead dear ones
From tears to Picardy

With forgiveness, compassion love and understanding
We can be all that we can be
No matter where the road may lead dear ones
From tears to Picardy
