WHAKAPAPA - ARCHBISHOPS

Te whakamoemiti ki a koe, e te Ariki,
te Kai-hōmai i ngā mea katoa,
Nāu te kī, ‘Īnoia, ā ka hoatu; Rapua, ā ka kitea;
Pātukia, ā ka uakina ki a koutou.’
Korōria ki a koe.

Praise to you, abundant God,
for when we ask, you give;
when we seek, you show the way.
When we knock, you answer.
Praise to you for your unfailing grace.
Make us now your faithful people.
Amen.
