God of great waters and
green islands, we ask your blessing upon New Zealand. Guide and sustain leaders
at every level from the Prime Minister, to the Councils of every region, to
those leading in their local communities whether civically, culturally, or
within your Church. Strengthen bonds between immigrants, native New Zealanders
descended from immigrants, as well as indigenous peoples. Guide those
preserving New Zealand’s great natural beauty entrusted to it by creation.
Bless every citizen and those eagerly working toward citizenship. Let the world
learn more about this great nation and let those who make the journey there and
back again be blessed and share their happy stories of this epic land in many
languages across many nations. We pray this through the power of the Holy
Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
