1.	Eternal Father, strong to save, 
	Whose arm does bind the restless wave, 
	Who bids the mighty ocean deep 
	Its own appointed limits keep; 
	O hear us when we cry to Thee 
	For those in peril on the sea. 

2.	O Savior, 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. 

3.	O Holy Spirit, who did brood 
	Upon the waters dark and rude, 
	And bid their angry tumult cease, 
	And give for wild confusion peace; 
	O hear us when we cry to Thee 
	For those in peril on the sea. 

4.	O Trinity of love and pow'r, 
	Your children 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.
