Eternal Father Strong to Save - The Hit Co.
Eternal Father, strong to save
Whose arm hath bound the restless wave
Who bidd'st the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep
Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea
O Saviour, whose almighty word
The winds and waves submissive heard
Who walked upon the foaming deep
And calm amid the rage did sleep
O hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea
O Sacred Spirit, who didst brood
Upon the chaos dark and rude
Who badd'st its angry tumult cease
And gavest light and life and peace
Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea
O Trinity of love and power
Our brethren shield in danger's hour
From rock and tempest, fire and foe
Protect them wheresoe'er they go
Thus evermore shall rise to Thee
Glad hymns of praise from land and sea
