We wait and watch

God for whom we wait and watch,

you sent John the Baptist

to prepare for the coming of your Son:

give us courage to speak the truth

even to the point of suffering.

This we ask through Christ our Saviour.

Amen

E te Atua, e tāria nei e titiro nei mātou ki a koe,

i tonoa e koe a Hoani Kaiiriiri

hei whakarite i te ara mō te haerenga mai o tāu Tama;

kia mataara, kia māia ai mātou ki te kōrero i te pono

āhakoa pēhia e te taimaha.

E īnoi ai mātou i roto i a te Karaiti tō mātou Kaiwhakaora.

Āmine.
