Nga Whakamoemiti
Whakawhetai
E ihu e
Mo ou manaakitanga
Ki te iwi
E tau nei
Ko koe te piringa
Ka puta ki te oranga
E te Ariki
Pai marire
Praising and giving thanks to Jesus
For his blessings
Up to the people who have assembled here
You are the one that will bring us together
And show us a better life
Lord everlasting peace
