She reminds us of the importance of peace, tranquillity and the power of God, to whom we should give thanks for the many gifts he has given to mankind, and she writes that through our strong faith in God, we are able to conquer all obstacles. © 2019 Tāmata Toiere - waiata and haka lyrics VO2 web design
