Advent in Samoa
Advent in Samoa
(Written at the end of the Diocese of Polynesia Year of Youth Event in Samoa)
Hot days
Sun blazing
Water dripping
We wait
Here I am
Here we are
In Samoa
3 candles lit
All saints we gather
We wait
Listening for an infant’s cry
Looking for glimmers of hope
Here we are
Send us
Christ is being born among us
Christ is being born in us
And in the moana
Do we just sing a carol
Pray a prayer
Or clap our hands?
Or do we live this birth
Leaving footprints sprinkled with good news?
God waits
In Samoa
