Eternal Father, Strong to Save
Author: William Whiting, 1825-1878; Robert N. Spencer, 1877-1961 Hymnal: Glory and Praise (3rd. ed.) #746 (2015) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Eternal Father, strong to save,
Whose arm has bound the restless wave,
Who bids the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep:
O hear us when we raise our plea
For those in peril on the sea.
2 O Christ, the Lord of hill and plain
O'er which our traffic runs amain
By mountain pass or valley low;
Whereever, Lord, your loved ones go,
Protect them by your guiding hand
From ev'ry peril on the land.
3 O Spirit, whom the Father sent
To spread abroad the firmament;
O Wind of heaven, by your might
Save all who dare the eagle's flight,
And keep them by your watchful care
From ev'ry peril in the air.
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;
And then shall rise with voices free
Glad praise from air and land and sea.
