Hymnal: Alleluia Aotearoa #128 (1999) Lyrics: MAORI -
1 Tama ngakau marie, Tama a t'Atua,
tenei tonu matou, arohaina mai.
2 Murua ra nga hara: Wetekina mai
enei here kino, whakararu nei.
3 Takahia ki raro, tau e kino ai;
kei pa kaha tonu, ko nga mahi he.
4 Homai he aroha, mou i mate nei.
Tenei ra, e lhu, takin ai koe.
5 Tenei arahina, a tutuki noa:
puta i te pouri, whiwhi hari nui.
6 Tama ngakau marie, Tama a t'Atua,
tenei tonu matou, arohaina mai.

[ENGLISH translation not for singing]
1 Son of a peaceful heart, Son of God,
here we are, love us.
2 Take away our sins. Undo
these evil ties which bind us.
3 Trample under foot whatever is evil
lest the power remain of the evil deeds.
4 Give us love for you who died.
This day, Jesus, you lead us.
5 This is the pathway to the end through
the darkness to receive great joy.
6 Son of a peaceful heart, Son of God,
here we are, love us.
