Repair For Refuge

Chords: E A D E

O SON OF UTTERANCE! Turn thy face unto Mine and renounce all save Me; for My sovereignty endureth 
and My dominion perisheth not.  x3
If thou seekest another than Me, yea, if thou searchest the universe for evermore, thy quest will be in vain.

O Son Of Utterance

Chords: G C D

E te Atua! Arahina i ahau, 
tiakina ahau, whakamaramatia te rama o toku manawa 
kia meinga ahau hei whetu tiahoaho.  
Ko koe te kaha rawa, me te mana.

Chords: G Em C D

The divine friends must be attracted to and enamoured of each other and ever 
be ready and willing to sacrifice 
their own lives for each other. Should one soul from amongst the believers meet another
