Pasifika Hymn

Let all the islands rise and sing,
And to our God their praises bring
On strings and drum God's might proclaim
Shout the glory of God's name

Chorus:
Pasifika, Pasifika
With throbbing reef and coral shore
For fish and shell and mighty whale
For all God's gifts our thanks we pour


And when we see the stars at night
The many worlds which cross the sky
The sun and moon which give us light
We lift our hearts to God on high

The children playing on the shore
The sounds of laughter which we hear
Their love increasing more and more
Remind us that our God is near

The palms which bend toward the sky
The clouds which hurry to and fro
The birds which fly both low and high
Give joy to men and earth below

To God the Father, God the Son
And God the Spirit, praise be done
May Christ the Lord upon us pour
The Spirit's gift for evermore.
