MatinsO Lord, open our lips;
And our mouth shall proclaim your praise.
Opening Sentance
‘But ask the animals, and they will teach you;the birds of the air, and they will tell you;
ask the plants of the earth, and they will teach you;
and the fish of the sea will declare to you.
Who among all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this?. . . . .Job 10:7-9
Benedicite Aotearoa
- O give thanks to our God who is good:
whose love endures for ever. - You sun and moon, you stars of the southern sky:
give to our God your thanks and praise. - Sunrise and sunset, night and day:
give to our God your thanks and praise. - All mountains and valleys, grassland and scree,
glacier, avalanche, mist and snow:
give to our God your thanks and praise. - You kauri and pine, rata and kowhai, mosses and ferns:
give to our God your thanks and praise. - Dolphins and kahawai, sealion and crab,
coral, anemone, pipi and shrimp:
give to our God your thanks and praise. - Rabbits and cattle, moths and dogs,
kiwi and sparrow and tui and hawk:
give to our God your thanks and praise. - You Maori and Pakeha, women and men,
all who inhabit the long white cloud:
give to our God your thanks and praise. - All you saints and martyrs of the South Pacific:
give to our God your thanks and praise.
